I managed to do a review of the patch by doing a diff of the relevant
portion of Xen cpufeature.c with Linux cpufeature.c (from commit
b2d229d4ddb1), and the relevant portion of Xen sysregs.h with Linux
sysregs.h (diff -E -b -u).

Everything checks out.

In my opinion, this patch should be split in 2 patches: the changes to
cpufeature.c and sysregs.c that come from the Linux sources; and the
updates to cpufeature.h that do not. If you do that you can add my
reviewed-by to the first patch with the changes from Linux.

The list of individual commit IDs would be nice, but thanksfully the two
source files are still "diffable" so in my opinion are not required.

I have a couple of comments on the changes to cpufeature.h (the ones not
from Linux) which I'll reply directly to the patch.
