very nice patchset!

I've created a new topic for this: tip/x86/unify-cpu-detect, with these 
commits:

f5017cf: x86: use cpu/common.c on 64 bit
143b604: x86: cpu/common*.c, merge whitespaces
102bbe3: x86: cpu/common*.c, merge identify_cpu()
b89d3b3: x86: cpu/common*.c, merge generic_identify()
56f0d03: x86: cpu/common*.c: merge print_cpu_info()
6627d24: x86: cpu/common*.c, merge early_identify_cpu()
5122c89: x86: cpu/common.c: merge get_cpu_cap()
1cd7877: x86: cpu/common*.c, merge detect_ht()
140fc72: x86: cpu/common*.c, merge display_cacheinfo()
b9e67f0: x86: cpu/common.c, merge default_init()
fab334c: x86: cpu/common*.c, merge switch_to_new_gdt()
1ba7658: x86: cpu/common*.c have same cpu_init(), with copying and #ifdef
d5494d4: x86: cpu/common*.c, make 32-bit have 64-bit only functions
ba51dce: x86: cpu/common.c, let 64-bit code have 32-bit only functions
950ad7f: x86: same gdt_page with macro
f0fc4af: x86: make header file the same in arch/x86/kernel/cpu/common_xx.c
97e4db7: x86: make detect_ht depend on CONFIG_X86_HT

One small detail: i've added commit 143b604 before the final commit with 
the whitespace deltas, to make the final commit a pure, mechanic 
file-delete. The end result is still the same.

btw., the total effect of the unification is:

 4 files changed, 433 insertions(+), 861 deletions(-)

which is nice!
