@ilinpv the problem is that a lot of third party code out there might fail to compile now because it assumes GCC's behavior for invalid `__builtin_cpu_supports`. At least we can see many breakages in the third party that we use in our codebase.
By intentionally diverging from GCC this way you assume third party code owners will have to add architecture-specific guards around each use of `__builtin_cpu_supports`, which might be pretty disruptive.
Is there any document that specifies how builtins should behave when they are not supported/their parameter is not supported? I assume there is a reason behind failing the compilation in these cases, as not every builtin can simply answer "no", but I think this should be documented very explicitly.
