From 6b2942f966d5e54c37d305c80f5f98d504c2bc55 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Babu Moger Date: Tue, 19 Jun 2018 17:31:59 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] i386: Remove generic SMT thread check Remove generic non-intel check while validating hyperthreading support. Certain AMD CPUs can support hyperthreading now. CPU family with TOPOEXT feature can support hyperthreading now.
