[PATCH 1/2] Revert "x86, AMD: Fix APIC timer erratum 400 affecting K8 Rev.A-E processors"

[Borislav Petkov]

From: Borislav Petkov <borislav.petkov@xxxxxxx>

This reverts commit e20a2d205c05cef6b5783df339a7d54adeb50962.

Moving the lower endpoint of the Erratum 400 check to accomodate earlier
K8 revisions (A-E) opens a can of worms which is simply not worth to fix
properly by tweaking the errata checking framework:

* missing IntPenging MSR on revisions < CG cause #GP:

http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=130541471818831

* makes earlier revisions use the LAPIC timer instead of the C1E idle
routine which switches to HPET, thus not waking up in deeper C-states:

http://lkml.org/lkml/2011/4/24/20

Therefore, leave the original boundary starting with K8-revF.
