[PATCH v2] x86/apic: Drop useless CXL/CPX row from the TSC deadline errata table
Posted by Andrew Cooper 1 month ago
This erratum is fixed in later steppings.

Instead of including the fixed steppings in the table in a way that will
unconditionally cause apic_validate_deadline_timer() to decide "not
vulnerable", simply omit the row.

No functional change.

v2:
 * Adjust the commit message.

Strictly speaking, this is:

  Fixes: 66abf2388331 ("x86/apic: Convert the TSC deadline timer matching to steppings macro")

but I really don't think it's interesting to backport.
