Yes, thanks :-)

X86_FEATURE_CONSTANT_TSC is used as TSC Invariant of Power Management
EDX[8]. Now I made complete Advanced Power Management group so I moved
it down here.

Here is the complete Advanced Power Management patch, it is a big patch,
if you want I can further divide it:

Subject: [PATCH] x86: Add cpufeatures for Advanced Power Management

1. Add Advanced Power Management (Function 8000_0007h), edx
2. unification of X86_FEATURE_CONSTANT_TSC (from intel.c, amd.c to common.c)
3. Remove cpu/powerflags.c
4. Remove x86_power
5. Move 'power management' to flags of /proc/cpuinfo

/proc/cpuinfo (before)
flags		: fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge
mca cmov pat pse36 clflush mmx fxsr sse sse2 ht syscall nx mmxext fxsr_opt
rdtscp lm 3dnowext 3dnow constant_tsc rep_good nonstop_tsc pni cx16
lahf_lm cmp_legacy svm extapic cr8_legacy 3dnowprefetch osvw skinit pname
..
power management: ts ttp tm stc 100mhzsteps hwpstate

/proc/cpuinfo (after)
flags		: fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge
mca cmov pat pse36 clflush mmx fxsr sse sse2 ht syscall nx mmxext fxsr_opt
rdtscp lm 3dnowext 3dnow rep_good tsc_reliable nonstop_tsc pni cx16
lahf_lm cmp_legacy svm extapic cr8_legacy 3dnowprefetch osvw skinit pname
ts ttp htc stc 100mhzsteps hwpstate constant_tsc
