Subject: [PATCH 0/6] struct cpuinfo_x86 related cleanups

This small series slims down the x86 specific struct cpuinfo_x86
(patches 1 and 2). It's kind of a continuation of Boris' work from 2013.

Beside the x86 specific part it also cleans up other arches that had to
have a wp_works_ok variable / define back in the old v1.1 times. But
those times are long gone, so we can get rid of that ancient hackery.

Therefore patches 4, 5 and 6 are independent of the x86 specific changes
and could be taken by the individual arch maintainers if they prefer to.

Please apply,
Mathias

Mathias Krause (6):
  x86: drop unneded members of struct cpuinfo_x86
  x86/cpu: drop wp_works_ok member of struct cpuinfo_x86
  x86/cpu: proc - remove "wp" status line in cpuinfo
  sparc: remove unused wp_works_ok macro
  cris: remove unused wp_works_ok macro
  m68k: paging_init - remove dead code
