You missed my comment again. How about you read review feedback more carefully
please?

CPU_SUP_AMD selects X86_BROADCAST_TLB_FLUSH which depends on CPU_SUP_AMD which
selects X86_BROADCAST_TLB_FLUSH which depends on CPU_SUP_AMD...

You need to make up your mind in which way the dependency should be. Certainly
not circular.
