32c464f5d9 x86: multi-byte single instruction NOPs
Add support for and use the multi-byte NOPs recently documented to be
available on all PentiumPro and later processors.

This patch only applies cleanly on top of the "x86: misc.
constifications" patch sent earlier.

include/asm/processor.h:615: warning: pointer targets in passing argument 4 of native_cpuid differ in signedness

come because the arguments have been specified as pointers to (signed) int
types, not unsigned. So let's specify those as unsigned. Do some codingstyle
here and there while at it.
