x86: Add thresholds for "rep movsb/stosb" to tunables
Add x86_rep_movsb_threshold and x86_rep_stosb_threshold to tunables to update thresholds for "rep movsb" and "rep stosb" at run-time. Note that the user specified threshold for "rep movsb" smaller than the minimum threshold will be ignored. Reviewed-by: Carlos O'Donell <carlos@redhat.com>
