Thanks for your feedback for this and my previous email. They are really useful. Yes of course, I guess I misunderstood the original series and thought there is another improvement for the APIC. > > > + - Improved support for CET Indirect Branch Tracking on x86. > > + - Improved mwait-idle support for SPR and ADL on x86. > > SPR and ADL support is new in the driver, not improved. I will correct this in V2. Another question for adding another entry for x86 that worth to brag about a little bit: I did another dig into patchwork and found that this [1] might be a good candidate. IIUC __ro_after_init is a good feature that both x86 and Arm have leveraged in different level today, so probably the __ro_after_init might worth an entry in CHANGELOG. However I saw your comments in [1] so I am not really sure if you are happy with that, maybe we need to change the wording a little bit to remove your concern? Would you mind sharing some thoughts?
