Regardless of you limiting the interface to tools only, I'm not
convinced exposing constants starting with X86_* here is
appropriate.

Apart from that exposing them should be done using canonical instead
of Linux-invented names, i.e. s/XMM/SSE/ for the above lines. I've
had a need to create a patch to do this just earlier today.

Note how this one and ...

... these two already use names matching the SDM.

Since canonicalization of the names implies changes elsewhere, I also
can't really offer to do the adjustments while committing.
