[PATCH 2/4] x86, CPU: Extend TLB size detection for AMD

From: Borislav Petkov
Date: Fri Aug 03 2012 - 12:38:25 EST


From: Borislav Petkov <borislav.petkov@xxxxxxx>

TLB characteristics on AMD are in the extended CPUID level, leafs
0x8000000{5,6} so we need to check those before doing the detection.
