Subject: [PATCH v4 08/10] x86/mm: Add nopcid to turn off PCID
Date: Thu, 29 Jun 2017 08:53:20 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <8bbb2e65bcd249a5f18bfb8128b4689f08ac2b60.1498751203.git.luto@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1498751203.git.luto@kernel.org>
In-Reply-To: <cover.1498751203.git.luto@kernel.org>
The parameter is only present on x86_64 systems to save a few bytes,
as PCID is always disabled on x86_32.
