Hi,

this set of patches attempts to implement a CPU definition set for current Intel CPUs that resembles an original as closely as currently possible. Several features a current Intel CPU has are not implemented by qemu, but that should not keep us from adding this definition so people can add features later on.

As a side effect, I made the sysenter instruction 64-bit aware. This was an issue in KVM, that used the 32-bit cpu struct variables to hold 64-bit MSR values sysenter needs. I believe it to be a step in the right direction to not fix this only for KVM, but make the functionality available to qemu as well.

Can you please base theses patches off of the QEMU SVN repository instead of the kvm-userspace repository.
