Aside from being excessively slow, CPUID is problematic: Linux runs on a handful of CPUs that don't have CPUID. Use IRET-to-self instead. IRET-to-self works everywhere, so it makes testing easy. For reference, On my laptop, IRET-to-self is ~110ns, CPUID(eax=1, ecx=0) is ~83ns on native and very very slow under KVM, and MOV-to-CR2 is ~42ns. While we're at it: sync_core() serves a very specific purpose. Document it.
