From 5927145efd5de71976e62e2822511b13014d7e56 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christoph Hellwig Date: Mon, 19 Mar 2018 11:38:13 +0100 Subject: x86/cpu: Remove the CONFIG_X86_PPRO_FENCE=y quirk There were only a few Pentium Pro multiprocessors systems where this errata applied. They are more than 20 years old now, and we've slowly dropped places which put the workarounds in and discouraged anyone from enabling the workaround. Get rid of it for good.
