[PATCH] x86_64: Remove unused AMD K8 C stepping flag
X86_FEATURE_K8_C was a synthetic Linux CPUID flag that was used for some code optimizations in Opteron C stepping or later. But support for pre C stepping optimizations has been removed, so this isn't needed anymore. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
