[PATCH v3 31/37] x86: Expose thread features in /proc/$PID/status

From: Rick Edgecombe
Date: Fri Nov 04 2022 - 18:45:04 EST


Applications and loaders can have logic to decide whether to enable CET.
They usually don't report whether CET has been enabled or not, so there
is no way to verify whether an application actually is protected by CET
features.

Add two lines in /proc/$PID/status to report enabled and locked features.

Since, this involves referring to arch specific defines in asm/prctl.h,
implement an arch breakout to emit the feature lines.
