    [PATCH] x86: Don't use MWAIT on AMD Family 10 · f039b754
    Andi Kleen authored
    It doesn't put the CPU into deeper sleep states, so it's better to use the standard
    idle loop to save power. But allow to reenable it anyways for benchmarking.
    
    I also removed the obsolete idle=halt on i386
