Yes that fixed the issue. I now reenabled it and reverted the following commit which is 1/2 commits
modifying cpu_debug code between 2.6.30..2.6.31:

Subject: [PATCH] x86: cpu_debug: Remove model information to reduce encoding-decoding

Remove model information, encoding/decoding and reduce bookkeeping.

This, besides removing a lot of code and cleaning up the code, also
enables these features on many more CPUs that were enumerated before.


The other commit is (which I think is just for improving the output):

Subject: [PATCH] x86: display extended apic registers with print_local_APIC and cpu_debug code

Both print_local_APIC (used when apic=debug kernel param is set) and
cpu_debug code missed support for some extended APIC registers that
I'd like to see.

This adds support to show:

 - extended APIC feature register
 - extended APIC control register
 - extended LVT registers

[ Impact: print more debug info ]
