Subject: [PATCH v6 03/10] x86, mpx: add macro cpu_has_mpx
Date: Wed, 18 Jun 2014 17:44:09 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1403084656-27284-4-git-send-email-qiaowei.ren@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1403084656-27284-1-git-send-email-qiaowei.ren@intel.com>

In order to do performance optimization, this patch adds macro
cpu_has_mpx which will directly return 0 when MPX is not supported
by kernel.
