x86: X86 instruction decoder build-time selftest
Add a user-space selftest of x86 instruction decoder at kernel build time. When CONFIG_X86_DECODER_SELFTEST=y, Kbuild builds a test harness of x86 instruction decoder and performs it after building vmlinux. The test compares the results of objdump and x86 instruction decoder code and check there are no differences.

Perform x86 instruction decoder selftests at build time.
|

This option is useful for checking the sanity of x86 instruction
|

decoder code.

If unsure, say "N".
