x86/vmware: Add a header file for hypercall definitions The new header is intended to be used by drivers using the backdoor. Follow the KVM example using alternatives self-patching to choose between vmcall, vmmcall and io instructions. Also define two new CPU feature flags to indicate hypervisor support for vmcall- and vmmcall instructions. The new XF86_FEATURE_VMW_VMMCALL flag is needed because using XF86_FEATURE_VMMCALL might break QEMU/KVM setups using the vmmouse driver. They rely on XF86_FEATURE_VMMCALL on AMD to get the kvm_hypercall() right. But they do not yet implement vmmcall for the VMware hypercall used by the vmmouse driver.
