Subject: Xeon 5500 series support in kernel

Hi all,

I wonder if there are specific kernel configuration parameters that 
allow to optimize performances on the recent Xeon 5500 processors (aka 
Nehalem).
In particular, should we set CONFIG_GENERIC_CPU or CONFIG_MCORE2 on such 
processors ?
Thanks in advance.
Xavier
