[PATCH v3 08/15] btrace: identify cpu


Add a struct for identifying a processor and use it in linux-btrace.c when
identifying the processor we're running on.

We will need this feature for the new btrace format.

2015-01-29  Markus Metzger  <markus.t.metzger@intel.com>

gdb/
	* common/btrace-common.h (btrace_cpu_vendor, btrace_cpu): New.
	* nat/linux-btrace.c: Include x86-cpuid.h.
	(btrace_this_cpu): New.
	(cpu_supports_bts): Call btrace_this_cpu.
	(intel_supports_bts): Add cpu parameter.
