[PATCH RFC 00/11] x86/msr: Reduce MSR access interfaces

[Juergen Gross <jgross@suse.com>]

After my first attempt to rework the MSR access functions [1] this is
the result of the feedback I got.

I have still followed the idea to:

- Reduce the number of MSR access functions by keeping the ones with
  64-bit values only (instead of the dual 32-bit ones).

- Try to have inline functions instead of macros for rdmsr*(), removing
  the hard to read cases where parameters specified the variables for
  the results.

One feedback I got was NOT to rename the access functions, which I
avoided in my new approach.

The first 8 patches are a complete set for achieving especially the
first point above for the *_on_cpu() functions.

Patch 9 is preparing the switch of the CPU-local MSR access functions
to have only rdmsr(), rdmsr_safe(), wrmsr() and wrmsr_safe() (all with
64-bit values and as inline functions) in the end. For this purpose
the already existing functions/macros are overloaded via macros to
accept both variants (64-bit and dual 32-bit values) during the phase
switching the different subsystems to the new scheme. This has the
advantage to avoid having to either patch all users of the current
functions in one patch (like done in the first 8 patches), or having
to use intermediate function names with need to be patched at the end
another time. The resulting patches would be very hard to review due
to their size.

The last 2 patches are examples how switches of subsystems would look
like.

Up to now all of that is compile tested only.
