[PATCH 1/1] x86_64: add config options to optimize for newer AMDprocessors

[Austin S Hemmelgarn]

From: Austin S. Hemmelgarn <ahferroin7@xxxxxxxxx>

This patch adds Kconfig options to allow optimization for AMD family
10h, AMD Bulldozer, and AMD Piledriver derived CPU's in version
3.12-rc2.  These provide noticeable improvements over the K8 config
option, and allow the kernel to take full advantage of AMD specific
instruction set extensions, such as ABM, LZCNT, and POPCNT.
