[PATCH 00/11] x86: 32-bit cleanups

[Arnd Bergmann]

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx>

While looking at 32-bit arm cleanups, I came across some related topics
on x86 and ended up making a series for those as well.

Primarily this is about running 32-bit kernels on 64-bit hardware,
which usually works but should probably be discouraged more clearly by
only providing support for features that are used on real 32-bit hardware:

I found only a few 2003-era high-end servers (HP DL740 and DL760 G2)
that were the only possible remaining uses of HIGHMEM64G and BIGSMP after
the removal of 32-bit NUMA machines in 2014. Similary, there is only
one generation of hardware with support for VT-x.  All these features
can be removed without hurting users.

In the CPU selection, building a 32-bit kernel optimized for AMD K8
or Intel Core2 is anachronistic, so instead only 32-bit CPU types need
to be offered as optimization targets. The "generic" target on 64-bit
turned out to be slightly broken, so I included a fix for that as well,
replacing the compiler default target with an intentional selection
between the useful levels.

Arnd Bergmann (11):
  x86/Kconfig: Geode CPU has cmpxchg8b
  x86: drop 32-bit "bigsmp" machine support
  x86: Kconfig.cpu: split out 64-bit atom
  x86: split CPU selection into 32-bit and 64-bit
  x86: remove HIGHMEM64G support
  x86: drop SWIOTLB and PHYS_ADDR_T_64BIT for PAE
  x86: drop support for CONFIG_HIGHPTE
  x86: document X86_INTEL_MID as 64-bit-only
  x86: rework CONFIG_GENERIC_CPU compiler flags
  x86: remove old STA2x11 support
  x86: drop 32-bit KVM host support
