[PATCH v4 1/2] x86, mwaitt: add monitorx and mwaitx instruction

[Huang Rui <ray.huang@amd.com>]

On AMD Carrizo processors (Family 15h, Model 60h-6fh), there is a new
feature called MWAITT (Mwait with a timer) as an extension of
Monitor/Mwait.

MWAITT, another name is MWAITX (MWAIT with extensions), has a configurable
timer that causes MWAITX to exit on expiration.

Compared with MONITOR/MWAIT, there are minor differences in opcode and
input parameters.

MWAITX ECX[1]: enable timer if set
MWAITX EBX[31:0]: max wait time expressed in SW P0 clocks

                MWAIT                           MWAITX
opcode          0f 01 c9           |            0f 01 fb
ECX[0]                  value of RFLAGS.IF seen by instruction
ECX[1]          unused/#GP if set  |            enable timer if set
ECX[31:2]                     unused/#GP if set
EAX                           unused (reserve for hint)
EBX[31:0]       unused             |            max wait time (loops)

                MONITOR                         MONITORX
opcode          0f 01 c8           |            0f 01 fa
EAX                     (logical) address to monitor
ECX                     #GP if not zero

The software P0 frequency is the same as the TSC frequency.

Max timeout = EBX/(TSC frequency)
