[Xen-devel] [PATCH v2] x86/current: Provide additional information to optimise get_cpu_info()

[Andrew Cooper <andrew.cooper3@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Exactly as with c/s d55c5eefe "x86: use compiler visible "add" instead of
inline assembly "or" in get_cpu_info()", this is achieved by providing more
information to the compiler.

This causes a net drop of almost 4K of .text
