[PATCH 8/10] x86: microcode_amd: remove (wrong) chipset deivce IDchecks

From: Andreas Herrmann
Date: Tue Dec 16 2008 - 13:20:48 EST


Currently there is no chipset specific ucode. The checks are incorrect
anyway (e.g. pci device IDs are 16 bit and not 8 bit).

Thus I remove the stuff for the time being and will reintroduce it if
it's foreseeable that it is really needed.
