But then I don't see the point of adding the Hygon vendor, since any
check can be simplified:

	(AMD || HYGON) -->
		AMD

	(AMD && fam = 17h) || (HYGON && fam = 18h) -->
		AMD && (fam = 17h || fam = 18h)

	(AMD && fam = 17h) || HYGON -->
		AMD && (fam = 17h || fam = 18h)

etc.  Anyway, I don't care much either way.
