commit 454de1e7d970d6bc567686052329e4814842867c upstream. As per "AMD64 Architecture Programmer's Manual Volume 3: General-Purpose and System Instructions", MWAITX EAX[7:4]+1 specifies the optional hint of the optimized C-state. For C0 state, EAX[7:4] should be set to 0xf. Currently, a value of 0xf is set for EAX[3:0] instead of EAX[7:4]. Fix this by changing MWAITX_DISABLE_CSTATES from 0xf to 0xf0. This hasn't had any implications so far because setting reserved bits in EAX is simply ignored by the CPU.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
