No functional change in practice, patch only aims to properly
document (in spec and code) intended usage of the reserved space.
The new field is to be used for 2 purposes:
- detection of modern CPU hotplug interface using
CPHP_GET_NEXT_CPU_WITH_EVENT_CMD command.
procedure will be described in follow up patch:
"acpi: cpuhp: spec: add typical usecases"
- for returning upper 32 bits of architecture specific CPU ID,
for new CPHP_GET_CPU_ID_CMD command added by follow up patch:
"acpi: cpuhp: add CPHP_GET_CPU_ID_CMD command"
Change is backward compatible with 4.2 and older machines, as field was
unconditionally reserved and always returned 0x0 if modern CPU hotplug
interface was enabled.
