Btw, there's another wonderful gem in the tree:

arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cyrix.c:201:        if (test_cpu_cap(c, 1*32+24)) {

Jeez, and a naked number at that which is not even a define in
arch/x86/include/asm/cpufeatures.h

Ah, I need to look at the whole thing:

        /* Cyrix used bit 24 in extended (AMD) CPUID for Cyrix MMX extensions */
        if (test_cpu_cap(c, 1*32+24)) {
                clear_cpu_cap(c, 1*32+24);
                set_cpu_cap(c, X86_FEATURE_CXMMX);
        }

So it is actually a correction for "smart" hw.
