Crap. :-(

3.2 still has this:

<arch/x86/include/asm/processor.h>:
...
#ifdef CONFIG_SMP
        /* number of cores as seen by the OS: */
        u16                     booted_cores;
        /* Physical processor id: */
        u16                     phys_proc_id;
        /* Core id: */
        u16                     cpu_core_id;
        /* Compute unit id */
        u8                      compute_unit_id;
        /* Index into per_cpu list: */
        u16                     cpu_index;
#endif
        u32                     microcode;
} __attribute__((__aligned__(SMP_CACHE_BYTES)));

    x86: Simplify code by removing a !SMP #ifdefs from 'struct cpuinfo_x86'

Ben, you might want to backport this one too... I'll run a couple of 3.2
builds with it ontop of 3.2 to verify nothing else breaks.

Thanks.
