Subject: [PATCH] Fail gracefuly when attempting to load 64-bit kFreeBSD on IA32 CPU

  The DRM opt-in fallacy: "Your data belongs to us. We will decide when (and
  how) you may access your data; but nobody's threatening your freedom: we
  still allow you to remove your data and not access it at all."

	Fail gracefuly when attempting to load 64-bit kFreeBSD on IA32 CPU.

	* include/grub/i386/cpuid.h: New file.
	* commands/i386/cpuid.c: Include `<grub/i386/cpuid.h>'.
	(has_longmode): Rename to ...
	(grub_cpuid_has_longmode): ... this.  Update all users.  Remove
	`unsigned' attribute.
	* loader/i386/bsd.c: Include `<grub/i386/cpuid.h>'.
	(grub_bsd_load_elf): Fail if load of 64-bit kernel was requested
	on a CPU that doesn't implement AMD64 instruction set.
