The addition of Haswell-noTSX looks good to me.

I'm unclear on whether we truely need Broadwell-noTSX though. Did
Intel actually ship any Broadwell production silicon in which the
microcode disables this feature, or was it only a problem on
pre-production samples of Broadwell ? If the latter, I'd say we
don't need to have a Broadwell-noTSX model added. Perhaps Jun/Don
can confirm from Intel's side.
