Re: [Xen-devel] [PATCH v5 08/21] x86/cpu: Sysctl and common infrastructure for levelling context switching

A toolstack needs to know how much control Xen has over the visible cpuid

capable of.

This interface will currently report no capabilities.  This change is
scaffolding for future patches, which will introduce detection and switching
logic, after which the interface will report hardware capabilities correctly.
