Perhaps we should have something like:

void cpuid_cond(u32 leaf, u32 subleaf,
u32 *eax, u32 *ebx, u32 *ecx, u32 *edx)
{
const struct cpuinfo_x86 *c = this_cpu_ptr(&cpu_info);
u32 maxleaf;
int cpuid_level = c->cpuid_level;

switch (leaf >> 16) {
case 0x0000:
maxleaf = c->cpuid_level;
break;
case 0x8000:
maxleaf = c->extended_cpuid_level;
break;
case 0x4000 .. 0x40ff:
/* Not ideal, can we do better? */
maxleaf = cpu_has(X86_FEATURE_HYPERVISOR)
? 0x40ffffff : 0;
break;
/* Add Transmeta 0x8086 and VIA/Cyrix 0xc000? */
default:
/* Can we do better? */
if (c->x86_vendor_id) == X86_VENDOR_INTEL)
maxleaf = 0;
else
maxleaf = leaf | 0xffff;
break;
}

if (cpuid_level >= 0 && leaf >= maxleaf) {
cpuid_count(leaf, subleaf, eax, ebx, ecx, edx);
} else {
*eax = *ebx = *ecx = *edx = 0;
}
}

-hpa

P.S. I would love to (a) move the CPUID bits into a structure instead of
passing all those crazy pointers around, and (b) stop passing struct
cpuinfo * around when we only use it for the current processor anyway (a
lot of these functions are in fact completely invalid if we don't); we
could define this_cpu_info as (*this_cpu_ptr(&cpu_info)) -- basically
what I have above -- or directly use percpu functions to access these
variables.
