Hmm, maybe some downcored creations, who knows? But actually, that
doesn't matter: we want to exit early from acpi-cpufreq loading on K8
only so the check should simply be:
if (boot_cpu_data.x86_vendor == X86_VENDOR_AMD &&
boot_cpu_data.x86 == 0xf) {
pr_debug(...)
...
}
Yeah, I think that should work. I'll add your patch to the others and
make a patchset to give it a run. If it looks good, we'll queue it for
3.9 so that it can see more testing.
Thanks.
