Both the subject and the body say "X64" (don't use that, btw, it's x86-64, 
please), but the patch itself says CONFIG_X86.

So what is it? Is it any x86, is it just 64-bit, or what? 

So if it's any x86, then please say so in the explanation. And if it's 
really just x86-64, then use CONFIG_X86_64 as the config variable (and 
x86-64 rather than X64 in the commentary).
