    x86/msr: Definitions for MSR_INTEL_CORE_THREAD_COUNT
    
    This is a model specific register which details the current configuration
    cores and threads in the package.  Because of how Hyperthread and Core
    configuration works works in firmware, the MSR it is de-facto constant and
    will remain unchanged until the next system reset.
    
    It is a read only MSR (so unilaterally reject writes), but for now retain 
its
    leaky-on-read properties.  Further CPUID/MSR work is required before we can
    start virtualising a consistent topology to the guest, and retaining the old
    behaviour is the safest course of action.
