Subject: [PATCH] x86: kvm: Restrict X86_FEATURE_VMMCALL to x86_64 platform
Date: Mon, 30 Jul 2018 15:40:59 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180730194059.5781-1-tedheadster@gmail.com> (raw)
early_init_amd() is called on all AMD processors, both 64 and 32 bit.
Presently 32 bit processors get the X86_FEATURE_VMMCALL feature set, which
they do not support. Add conditionals to restrict it to 64 bit processors.
