[v3,07/18] x86/cpu/amd: Use the full 64-bit TSC to detect the 2.6.2 bug

Commit Message

Andy Lutomirski June 17, 2015, 12:35 a.m. UTC

This code is timing 100k indirect calls, so the added overhead of
counting the number of cycles elapsed as a 64-bit number should be
insignificant.  Drop the optimization of using a 32-bit count.
