H. Peter Anvin (Intel) 841326332b x86/cpufeatures: Generate the <asm/cpufeaturemasks.h> header based on build config ...

Introduce an AWK script to auto-generate the <asm/cpufeaturemasks.h> header
with required and disabled feature masks based on <asm/cpufeatures.h>
and the current build config.

Thus for any CPU feature with a build config, e.g., X86_FRED, simply add:

  config X86_DISABLED_FEATURE_FRED
	def_bool y
	depends on !X86_FRED

to arch/x86/Kconfig.cpufeatures, instead of adding a conditional CPU
feature disable flag, e.g., DISABLE_FRED.

Lastly, the generated required and disabled feature masks will be added to
their corresponding feature masks for this particular compile-time
configuration.
