Cpuid leaf 4 contains information about how the state of the tsc, its mode, and some additional information. A commit that is queued for linux would like to use this to determine whether the tsc mode has been set to 'no emulation' in order to make some decisions about which clocksource is more reliable. Expose this information in the public API headers so that they can subsequently be imported into linux and used there.
