include/asm-i386/processor.h has names like:

/*
 * Intel CPU features in CR4
 */
#define X86_CR4_VME		0x0001	/* enable vm86 extensions */
#define X86_CR4_PVI		0x0002	/* virtual interrupts flag enable */
#define X86_CR4_TSD		0x0004	/* disable time stamp at ipl 3 */
#define X86_CR4_DE		0x0008	/* enable debugging extensions */
#define X86_CR4_PSE		0x0010	/* enable page size extensions */
#define X86_CR4_PAE		0x0020	/* enable physical address extensions */
#define X86_CR4_MCE		0x0040	/* Machine check enable */
#define X86_CR4_PGE		0x0080	/* enable global pages */
#define X86_CR4_PCE		0x0100	/* enable performance counters at ipl 3 */
#define X86_CR4_OSFXSR		0x0200	/* enable fast FPU save and restore */
#define X86_CR4_OSXMMEXCPT	0x0400	/* enable unmasked SSE exceptions */

extern unsigned long mmu_cr4_features;

static inline void set_in_cr4 (unsigned long mask)
{
	unsigned cr4;
	mmu_cr4_features |= mask;
	cr4 = read_cr4();
	cr4 |= mask;
	write_cr4(cr4);
}

static inline void clear_in_cr4 (unsigned long mask)
{
	unsigned cr4;
	mmu_cr4_features &= ~mask;
	cr4 = read_cr4();
	cr4 &= ~mask;
	write_cr4(cr4);
}


but nothing exactly like you asked about.
