x86, cpufeature: Catch duplicate CPU feature strings
We had a case of duplicate CPU feature strings, a user space ABI violation, for almost two years. Make it a build error so that doesn't happen again. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/4FE34BCB.5050305@linux.intel.com Cc: Jan Beulich <JBeulich@suse.com> Cc: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
