I thought the patch kept the old file as a stub with just one line: #include <linux/x86/intel-family.h> to grab the real data from the new location. So the information isn't in two places. $ git grep -l asm/intel-family.h | wc -l 53 Dang. We seem to love spraying model specific code all over the place :-( My opinion is to post as Iwona wrote it ... but be prepared for the maintainers to say "It's only 53 files ... just fix them all" -Tony
