[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v4 01/15] Introduce stub routine cpu_desc_avail

[Michael Mueller <mimu@linux.vnet.ibm.com>]

This patch introduces the function cpu_desc_avail() which returns by
default true if not architecture specific implemented. Its intention
is to indicate if the cpu model description is available for display
by list_cpus(). This change allows cpu model descriptions to become
dynamically created by evaluating the runtime context instead of
putting static cpu model information at display.
