Reserved bits aren't always zero. But here they are reserved for
ApmTdpLimit expansion.

Yes, we would better add bit-masking here. :-)

You need add CPU family check and a comment to mention bit field
change. This updates since family 15h and model 60h.

if (boot_cpu_data.x86 == 0x15 && boot_cpu_data.x86_model >= 0x60)

Thanks,
