Arvind Sankar 7e297c83e6 x86/fpu: Allow multiple bits in clearcpuid= parameter
[ Upstream commit 0a4bb5e5507a585532cc413125b921c8546fc39f ]

Commit

  0c2a3913d6 ("x86/fpu: Parse clearcpuid= as early XSAVE argument")

changed clearcpuid parsing from __setup() to cmdline_find_option().
While the __setup() function would have been called for each clearcpuid=
parameter on the command line, cmdline_find_option() will only return
the last one, so the change effectively made it impossible to disable
more than one bit.

Allow a comma-separated list of bit numbers as the argument for
clearcpuid to allow multiple bits to be disabled again. Log the bits
being disabled for informational purposes.

Also fix the check on the return value of cmdline_find_option(). It
returns -1 when the option is not found, so testing as a boolean is
incorrect.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
