[PATCH v4 1/1] tools/power x86_energy_perf_policy: fix cpuid for i686

From: Benson Leung
Date: Tue Feb 19 2013 - 15:18:53 EST


x86_energy_perf_policy reads cpuid using the cpuid instruction.
On i686, when building with PIC, this clobbers ebx, the PIC register.

Fixed using the cpuid accessor function that vapier@xxxxxxxxxx wrote:

v4 : Cleaned up checkpatch.pl style errors. Used vapier's newer better cpuid.
v3 : No changes.
v2 : make cpuid static inline. Remove unused eax from validate_cpuid and
clean up return variables from cpuid().
