[PATCH] x86: identify_cpu_without_cpuid v2

[PATCH] x86: identify_cpu_without_cpuid v2

[Yinghai Lu]

Krzysztof found some old cyrix cpu mtrr etc cpu feature was not detected

this one is based on Krzysztof' patch, and call c_identify in early_identify_cpu.

need to call c_identify() for cpus without cpuid earlier...
v2: Krzysztof point out need to give cyrix another chance about cpuid checking again
    after c_identify enable cpuid for it

applied them to tip/x86/unify-cpu-detect:

 afae865: x86: move transmeta cap read to early_init_transmeta()
 aef93c8: x86: identify_cpu_without_cpuid v2

thanks Yinghai!
