Subject: [PATCH v2] x86: add support DM&P devices
Date:   Sun, 17 Oct 2021 11:44:10 +0200

DM&P devices were not being properly identified, which resulted in
unneeded Spectre/Meltdown mitigations being applied.

The manufacturer states that these devices execute always in-order and
don't support either speculative execution or branch prediction, so
they are not vulnerable to this class of attack. [1]

This is something I've personally tested by a simple timing analysis
on my Vortex86MX CPU, and can confirm it is true.

Identification for some devices that lack the CPUID product name call
has also been added, so they appear properly on /proc/cpuinfo.
