Has this field been removed later? I can't see it with 2.6.18 kernel. I have copied the author of those tests - Sonic Zhang to see if he has any insight of it. Anyway, this piece of code seems check if the kernel has HT support or not. I am not sure if we'll still need it, because HT support has been added to kernel many years ago.
