According to Silvermont software optimization guide, for 64-bit
applications, branch prediction performance can be negatively impacted
when the target of a branch is more than 4GB away from the branch. Add
the Prefer_MAP_32BIT_EXEC bit so that mmap will try to map executable
pages with MAP_32BIT first. NB: MAP_32BIT will map to lower 2GB, not
lower 4GB, address. Prefer_MAP_32BIT_EXEC reduces bits available for
address space layout randomization (ASLR), which is always disabled for
SUID programs and can only be enabled by setting environment variable,
LD_PREFER_MAP_32BIT_EXEC.
On Fedora 23, this patch speeds up GCC 5 testsuite by 3% on Silvermont.

We detect i586 and i686 features at run-time by checking CX8 and CMOV
CPUID features bits. We can use these information to select the best
implementation in ix86 multiarch. HAS_I586/HAS_I686 is true if i586/i686
instructions are available on the processor.
Due to the reordering and the other nifty extensions in i686, it is not
really good to use heavily i586 optimized code on an i686. It's better
to use i486 code if it isn't an i586. USE_I586/USE_I686 is true if
i586/i686 implementation should be used for the processor. USE_I586
is true only if i686 instructions aren't available. If i686 instructions
are available, we always choose i686 or i486 implementation, in that order,
and we never choose i586 implementation for i686-class processors.

cpuid, i586 and i686 instructions are available if the processor
specified by -march= supports them. We can use this information
to determine whether those instructions can be used safely.

whether cpuid is available only if HAS_CPUID is 0.

This patch adds _dl_x86_cpu_features to rtld_global in x86 ld.so
and initializes it early before __libc_start_main is called so that
cpu_features is always available when it is used and we can avoid
calling __init_cpu_features in IFUNC selectors.
