Here's a quick fix against tip/amd-nb:

Subject: [PATCH] x86, amd: Fix uninitialized variable warning

d518573de63fb119e5e9a3137386544671387681 introduced compute unit
normalization but causes a valid compiler warning:

arch/x86/kernel/cpu/amd.c: In function 'amd_detect_cmp':
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/amd.c:268: warning: 'cores_per_cu' may be used uninitialized in this function
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/amd.c:268: note: 'cores_per_cu' was declared here

Initialize it with a proper value. Also, fixup comment while at it.
