Nano processor may not fully support rdpmc instruction, it works well for reading general pmc counter, but will lead GP(general protection) when accessing fixed pmc counter. Furthermore, family/mode information is same between Nano processor and ZX-C processor, it leads to zhaoxin pmu driver is wrongly loaded for Nano processor, which resulting boot kernal fail.
To solve this problem, stepping information will be checked to distinguish between Nano processor and ZX-C processor.
