kcpuid --all --detail claims that all bits belong to ECX, in the form
of the header CPUID_${leaf}_ECX[${subleaf}].
Print the correct register name for all CPUID output.
kcpuid --detail also dumps the raw register value if a leaf/subleaf is
covered in the CSV file, but a certain output register within it is not
covered by any CSV entry. Since register names are now properly printed,
and since the CSV file has become exhaustive using x86-cpuid-db, remove
that value dump as it pollutes the output.
While at it, rename decode_bits() to show_reg(). This makes it match its
show_range(), show_leaf() and show_reg_header() counterparts.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
