This patch provides the necessary infrastructure to allow drivers
to be automatically loaded via udev. It implements the minimum
required to be able to use module_cpu_feature_match() to trigger
the GENERIC_CPU_AUTOPROBE mechanisms.

The features exposed are a mirror of the cpu_user_features
(converted to an offset from a mask). This decision was made to
ensure that the behavior between features for module loading and
userspace are consistent.
