* Returns true if FSGSBASE ISA can be used.
*
* If this function returns true (Linux 5.9+ or FreeBSD) then you should
* be able to read/write to the %gs / %fs x86 segment registers in about
* one or two clock cycles which gives you a free addition operation for
* all assembly ops that reference memory.
*
* The FSGSBASE ISA was introduced by Intel with Ivybridge (c. 2012) but
* the Linux Kernel didn't authorize us to use it until 2020, once Intel
* had to start backdooring customer kernels so that they could have it.
* AMD introduced support for the FSGSBASE ISA in Excavator, aka bdver4.
*
* @return boolean indicating if feature can be used
