x86/amd_nb: Restrict init function to AMD-based systems
[ Upstream commit bee9e840609cc67d0a7d82f22a2130fb7a0a766d ]
The code implicitly operates on AMD-based systems by matching on PCI
IDs. However, the use of these IDs is going away.
Add an explicit CPU vendor check instead of relying on PCI IDs.
