What they do is basically have the resolver always called:
        callq   __cpu_indicator_init
        movl    __cpu_model+12(%rip), %eax
        andl    $1024, %eax                     # imm = 0x400
        cmpl    $1024, %eax                     # imm = 0x400
        sete    %al
        andb    $1, %al
        testb   $1, %al
        jne     .LBB1_1
        jmp     .LBB1_2
.LBB1_1:
        addq    $40, %rsp
        jmp     _Z3foov.avx2                    # TAILCALL
.LBB1_2:
        nop
        addq    $40, %rsp
        jmp     _Z3foov                         # TAILCALL

Not the fastest way of implementing this either.
A faster way to caching the result of the resolver.

Anyways we currently don't support multiversioning for non-ifuncs supported
targets. Someone will need to program up that support but it might be years
unless you pay someone to do it.
