[patch] x86: add linux kernel support for YMM state

[Suresh Siddha <suresh.b.siddha@intel.com>]

From: Suresh Siddha <suresh.b.siddha@intel.com>
Subject: x86: add linux kernel support for YMM state

Intel Advanced Vector Extensions (AVX) introduce 256-bit vector processing
capability. More about AVX at http://software.intel.com/sites/avx

Add OS support for YMM state management using xsave/xrstor infrastructure
to support AVX.
