Checking both boot_cpu_has() and cpu_has_xfeatures() has never really been needed in practice, and it's never been universally done (e.g., lib/raid/ omits cpu_has_xfeatures()). Nevertheless, both x86 and UML now explicitly clear the AVX and AVX-512 flags if their xfeatures are missing, which should remove any remaining doubts. Thus, remove all the calls to cpu_has_xfeatures(). Signed-off-by: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@kernel.org> --- lib/crc/x86/crc-pclmul-template.h | 6 ++---- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-)
