This allows us to - test those more recent instruction sets (AVX, AVX2, BMI1, BMI2, F16C, FMA, LZCNT, MOVBE, XSAVE) - benefit from improved performance across the stack both in kvm-driven system emulation and when running on real silicon. For example, glibc: https://www.phoronix.com/news/Glibc-strcasecmp-AVX2-EVEX v4 level is adding AVX-512, which is far less established, particularly Intel has famously backtracked from supporting it in Alder Lake/Raport Lake client CPUs and AMD has only implemented it in very recent Zen4 products: https://www.phoronix.com/news/GCC-11-x86-64-Feature-Levels (From OE-Core rev: 6f2af1e5d1537b4d31e14946292bf58f0fd76fc9) Signed-off-by: Alexander Kanavin <alex@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>

- Initial version
Most of the items for the X86 architectures are defined in the single arch-x86 file.
Three ABIs are define, m32, mx32 and m64.
The following is the list of X86 specific variables:
X86ARCH32 - This is the 32-bit architecture GNU canonical arch, TUNE_ARCH.
X86ARCH64 - This is the 64-bit architecture GNU canonical arch, TUNE_ARCH.
The TUNE_PKGARCH is defined as follows:
TUNE_PKGARCH = ${TUNE_PKGARCH:tune-${DEFAULTTUNE}}
The package architecture for 32-bit targets is historical and generally set to to match the core compatible processor type, i.e. i386.
For 64-bit architectures, the architecture is expected to end in '_64'.
If the x32 ABI is used, then the _64 is further extended with a '_x32'.
