Checkin e38e05a858 added a 9th CPU flag
word, but didn't adjust the boot code to match. This patch adds the
necessary boot code support.
Note: due to a typo in an #if statement, it didn't trigger the #error
this was supposed to do.

We have had a number of cases where <asm/cpufeature.h> (and its
predecessors) have diverged substantially from the names list in
/proc/cpuinfo. This patch generates the latter from the former.
It retains the option for explicitly overriding the strings, but by
making that require a separate action it should at least be less
likely to happen.
It would be good to do a future pass and rename strings that are
gratuituously different in the kernel (/proc/cpuinfo is a userspace
interface and must remain constant.)

Instead of obscure numbers, print the list of missing CPU features in
cleartext. To conserve space, use a host program (mkcpustr.c) to
produce a compact list of mandatory features only.
