Above the changes of each Broadwell-v{2,3,4} are based on Broadwell-v1.

But in the code, Cascadelake-Server-v3 inherits all the features in 
Cascadelake-Server-v2 and removes TSX related hle & rtm.

So if we keep the same rule based on v1, it should be

  x86 Cascadelake-Server-v3  Intel Xeon Processor (Cascadelake) 
[ARCH_CAPABILITIES, no TSX]
