[PATCH v4 0/2] x86: Prepare for new Intel Family numbers
From: Sohil Mehta
Date: Tue Mar 18 2025 - 18:41:07 EST
---Summary---
Mainstream Intel processors have been using Family 6 for a couple of decades.
This series is an audit of all the arch/x86 Intel Family-model checks to get
ready for the upcoming Family 18 and 19 models. It also converts one of the
last remaining Intel-specific x86_model checks to VFM ones.
Most of the patches were picked up from the v3 series and applied to tip.
This series contains the remaining perf/x86 patches rebased on tip:x86/cpu.
---v4 changes---
* Addressed comments from Kan Liang.
* Picked up Kan Liang's review tags.
* Rebased on top of tip:x86/cpu.
---Previous versions---
Refer to the v2 cover letter for more background.
