From: Janakarajan Natarajan <[email protected]> commit 454de1e7d970d6bc567686052329e4814842867c upstream.
As per "AMD64 Architecture Programmer's Manual Volume 3: General-Purpose and System Instructions", MWAITX EAX[7:4]+1 specifies the optional hint of the optimized C-state. For C0 state, EAX[7:4] should be set to 0xf. Currently, a value of 0xf is set for EAX[3:0] instead of EAX[7:4]. Fix this by changing MWAITX_DISABLE_CSTATES from 0xf to 0xf0. This hasn't had any implications so far because setting reserved bits in EAX is simply ignored by the CPU.
