I asked Andi Kleen about this on IRC, and he said: <freitag> the reason was that i didn't want to hack everybody's magic MSRs into the old verify_cpu.S verify_cpu.S is dead on i386 (replaced by arch/i386/boot/cpucheck.c) which does have the flags enable MSR tweaks; it is still being used for APs on x86-64. However, in the meantime it should be safe to remove this dependency from i386. -hpa - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ | ||||||||||||
