Subject[PATCH] x86/acpi/cstate: Delete some unuseful operations for centaur
Date
For Centaur CPU, the ucode will make sure that each cpu core can keep cache
coherency with each other when the CPU core entering to any C State. So the cache
flush operations when enter C3 is not necessary and will cause large C3 enter/exit
latency.
And the bus master disable operation when CPU core entering C3 state is not needed
too. Because the chipset will automatically do this operation.
