Title:
  -cpu haswell / broadwell have no MONITOR in features1

Status in QEMU:
  Expired

Bug description:
  In qemu 2.9.0 if you run

      qemu-system-x86_64 -cpu Broadwell (or Haswell)

  then the CPU features1 flag include the SSE3 bit, but do NOT include
  the MONITOR/MWAIT bit.  This is so even when the host includes the
  features.

  
  Additionally, running qemu in this manner results in several error messages:

  warning: TCG doesn't support requested feature: CPUID.01H:ECX.fma [bit 12]

  (Among possible other uses, the lack of the MONITOR feature bit causes NetBSD 
to fall-back on a
  check-and-pause loop while an application CPU is waiting to be told to 
proceed by the boot CPU.)
