  To: x86; +Cc: linux-kernel, tglx, mingo, hpa, len.brown, Krzysztof Mazur

The commit 27be457000211a6903968dfce06d5f73f051a217
(x86 idle: remove 32-bit-only "no-hlt" parameter, hlt_works_ok flag)
removed the hlt_works_ok flag from struct cpuinfo_x86, but
boot_cpu_data and new_cpu_data initializers were not changed causing
setting f00f_bug flag, instead of fdiv_bug. If CONFIG_X86_F00F_BUG
is not set the f00f_bug flag is never cleared.

To avoid such problems in future C99-style initialization is now used.

$ cat < /proc/cpuinfo
processor	: 0
vendor_id	: GenuineIntel
cpu family	: 6
model		: 13
model name	: Intel(R) Pentium(R) M processor 1.73GHz
stepping	: 8
microcode	: 0x20
cpu MHz		: 800.000
cache size	: 2048 KB
fdiv_bug	: no
f00f_bug	: yes
...
	
By the way now in struct cpuinfo_x86 for 32-bit systems pad0
should be extended to 2 bytes or removed, because now 32-bit
specific bugs area have now 6 bytes + pad0.
