[RFC][PATCH 21/34] x86/cpu: Consolidate CLFLUSH size setting.

From: Dave Hansen
Date: Thu Feb 22 2024 - 13:47:59 EST



From: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Right now, cpu_detect() establishes ->x86_clflush_size on each CPU
that. supports CLFLUSH. As you might have guessed, that per-cpu
value is no longer used.

Move the setting to get_cpu_address_sizes() which is only called
on the boot CPU. Consolidate all of the ->x86_clflush_size logic
into a single helper.

This removes the (cap0 & (1<<19) aka X86_FEATURE_CLFLUSH check before
reading the CLFLUSH size out of CPUID[1]. Those bits are presumably
either 0 or have actual data about CLFLUSH in them.
