Subject: [PATCH 0/3] x86, CPU: Some more cleanups and rearrangements

From: Borislav Petkov <bp@...e.de>

Hi,

some more stuff from recently:

01 adds "bugs : " line to /proc/cpuinfo to show for which hw bugs of the
current CPU the kernel knows and possibly applies a workaround.

02 is a bit big but it is basically reorganizing code around and doing
small changes like replacing cpu_has_mp with the dynamic cpu_has call so
that we can remove the former.

03 does that.

Tested on a bunch of AMD and Intel machines.

Borislav Petkov (3):
  x86, CPU: Add bug flags to /proc/cpuinfo
  x86, AMD: Cleanup init_amd
  x86, CPU: Kill cpu_has_mp
