[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 6/7] cpu model bug fixes and definition corrections

[john cooper]

This patch adds Westmere as a qemu cpu model.  The only
additional guest visible feature of a Westmere relative
to Nehalem is the inclusion of AES instructions.  However
as other non-ABI visible modifications exist along with
fabrication changes, the CPUID data of the corresponding
deployed silicon was altered slightly to reflect this.

We've seen isolated cases where apparently unrelated yet
slightly incoherent CPUID data has caused problems, most
notably during guest boot.  Providing Westmere as a
model separate fro Nehalem allows us to more easily address
such quirks.
