x86: don't use P6_NOPs if compiling with CONFIG_X86_GENERIC
Commit: 959b3be64cab9160cd74532a49b89cdd918d38e9 x86: don't use P6_NOPs if compiling with CONFIG_X86_GENERIC P6_NOPs are definitely not supported on some VIA CPUs, and possibly (unverified) on AMD K7s. It is also the only thing that prevents a 686 kernel from running on Transmeta TM3x00/5x00 (Crusoe) series. The performance benefit over generic NOPs is very small, so when building for generic consumption, avoid using them. Signed-off-by: H.
