This is insufficient afaics. Mobile Athlon's/Durons will have
a different VRM to the desktop parts.

possible the same here.

again, mobile parts may match this.

definitly here.

huh? Under ifdef CONFIG_X86 ?

ditto.

1. CodingStyle dictates
		if (c->x86 < 6)
			return 0;
2. Typo in 'familly'

Is this guaranteed safe on all vendors ?

why build this at all on non-x86 if its useless ?
