Btw, there's another wonderful gem in the tree:
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cyrix.c:201: if (test_cpu_cap(c, 1*32+24)) {
Jeez, and a naked number at that which is not even a define in arch/x86/include/asm/cpufeatures.h
Ah, I need to look at the whole thing:
/* Cyrix used bit 24 in extended (AMD) CPUID for Cyrix MMX extensions */ if (test_cpu_cap(c, 1*32+24)) { clear_cpu_cap(c, 1*32+24); set_cpu_cap(c, X86_FEATURE_CXMMX); }
So it is actually a correction for "smart" hw.
