I can't exactly tell why. What I am sure is that X86_FEATURE_EST should
be exposed, otherwise ACPI _CST method invoking in dom0 will always
failed. MWAIT feature & MSR_IA32_MISC_ENABLE_MONITOR_ENABLE bit are
exposed just in case of possible needs. If I could make sure MWAIT
feature & MONITOR_ENABLE are not needed, I will send patch to remove
them.

Ok, I will add comment after I can explain clearly.
