Subject: [PATCH] RHEL: Hack around changed Broadwell/Haswell CPUs
RHEL-only
Upstream tried to solve the change of Broadwell and Haswell CPUs by
removing rtm and hle features from the corresponding CPU models for new
machine types. Then they reverted this and introduced new *-noTSX models
instead. However, the original fix was backported to RHEL.
This patch makes sure Broadwell and Haswell will always contain rtm and
hle features regardless on RHEL version or machine type used.
