[PATCH v4 4/4] x86/cpu: <asm/processor.h>: Do not include the CPUID API header

From: Ahmed S. Darwish
Date: Wed Jul 23 2025 - 13:43:37 EST


<asm/processor.h> includes the main CPUID API header <asm/cpuid/api.h>
but it does not need it.

Remove the include.

Note, this allows the CPUID API header to include <asm/processor.h> at a
later step, which is needed for the upcoming CPUID model and parser,
without introducing a circular dependency.

Note, all call sites which implicitly included the CPUID API header
through <asm/processor.h> have been already modified to explicitly
include the CPUID API instead.
