[PULL 01/27] target/i386: remove PCOMMIT from TCG, deprecate property
Posted by Paolo Bonzini 6 months, 2 weeks ago
The PCOMMIT instruction was never included in any physical processor.
TCG implements it as a no-op instruction, but its utility is debatable
to say the least.  Drop it from the decoder since it is only available
with "-cpu max", which does not guarantee migration compatibility
across versions, and deprecate the property just in case someone is
using it as "pcommit=off".
