Add CPUID_LNX_5 to track cpufeatures' word 21, and add the appropriate
compile-time assert in KVM to prevent direct lookups on the features in
CPUID_LNX_5. KVM uses X86_FEATURE_* flags to manage guest CPUID, and so
must translate features that are scattered by Linux from the Linux-defined
bit to the hardware-defined bit, i.e. should never try to directly access
scattered features in guest CPUID.
Opportunistically add NR_CPUID_WORDS to enum cpuid_leafs, along with a
compile-time assert in KVM's CPUID infrastructure to ensure that future
additions update cpuid_leafs along with NCAPINTS.
No functional change intended.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
