X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=35da0d504a982709f5836cca725096cefcad24e2;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

x86/CPU: Check CPU feature bits after microcode upgrade

commit 42ca8082e260dcfd8afa2afa6ec1940b9d41724c upstream.

With some microcode upgrades, new CPUID features can become visible on
the CPU. Check what the kernel has mirrored now and issue a warning
hinting at possible things the user/admin can do to make use of the
newly visible features.
