[patch v6 12/12] btrace, x86: disable on some processors

[markus.t.metzger@intel.com]

From: Markus Metzger <markus.t.metzger@intel.com>

LBR, BTM, or BTS records may have incorrect branch "from" information afer an
EIST transition, T-states, C1E, or Adaptive Thermal Throttling (AAJ122).

This results in sporadic test fails. Disable btrace on those processors.

2012-12-17 Markus Metzger <markus.t.metzger@intel.com>

	* common/linux-btrace.c (linux_supports_btrace): Add cpuid check.
