From: Piotr Luc <piotr....@intel.com> Enable ring 3 MONITOR/MWAIT for Intel Xeon Phi codenamed Knights Mill. We can't guarantee that this (KNM) will be the last CPU model that needs this hack. But, we do recognize that this is far from optimal, and there is an effort to ensure we don't keep doing extending this hack forever
