[PATCH] x86/boot: adding hw subarch ID for Moorestown

From: Jacob Pan
Date: Thu Jun 11 2009 - 23:34:47 EST


x86 bootprotocol 2.07 has introduced hardware_subarch ID in the boot
parameters provided by FW. We use it to identify Moorestown platforms.

The subarchitecture ID will help select a set of platform features and
x86_quirks.
