Please reindent the rest of the structure whenever you break the record
for name length.

First of all, please endeavor to leave the main flow of the function at
the first indent.

*If* you were to do this, it would look like:


	if (c != &boot_cpu_data)
		return;
	if (!cpu_has(c, X86_FEATURE_CORE_CAPABILITY))
		return;

	rdmsrl(...);

But, it goes unmentioned why you do the boot-cpu-only restriction here.
 It doesn't match the behavior of the two functions called before
init_core_capability():

        init_scattered_cpuid_features(c);
        init_speculation_control(c);

So why is this new function special?
