Why are these 16-bit fields? 16-bit data types should be avoided as much as 
possible, as they generate suboptimal code.

Why isn't this __initdata?

Sloppy types: the canonical form is the longer 'unsigned int'..

Plus there's local variable naming sloppiness as well: 'cinfo' is not used 
anywhere in the current x86 code, introducing a new idiosyncratic naming 
variant 
just increases the complexity of the kernel unnecessarily.

When unsure about what the canonical naming of a commonly used structure is, 
you 
can type:

        git grep 'struct cpuinfo_x86'

and see how this variable is typically named in over 200 other cases.

The constant forced types are really ugly and permeate the whole code. Please 
introduce some suitably named helpers in the x86 bitops file that work on local 
variables:

        var &= ~(1<<bit);
        var |= 1<<bit;

Those helpers could be used on the natural u32 type of these fields without 
constantly having to force types between u32 and long.

Nit: please add a newline to vertically separate the loop initialization from 
the 
loop.

There's naming confusion here: sometimes a CPU feature bit is called a 'cap' 
(capability), sometimes 'feat' (feature). Pick 'feature' and use it 
consistently.

Please review the whole patch set for similar patterns of bugs/problems.

Thanks,
