From: Wan Zongshun <Vincent.Wan@amd.com>

AMD Fam17h processors introduce support for the CLZERO instruction. It
zeroes out the 64 byte cache line specified in RAX.

Add the bit here to allow /proc/cpuinfo to list the feature.

Boris: we're adding this as a separate ->x86_capability leaf because
CPUID_80000008_EBX is going to contain more feature bits and it will
fill out with time.
