From 1ba4f22c426ba04b00fd717318d50620c621a0e1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "H. Peter Anvin" Date: Thu, 27 May 2010 12:02:00 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] x86, cpufeature: Unbreak compile with gcc 3.x gcc 3 is too braindamaged to be able to compile static_cpu_has() -- apparently it can't tell that a constant passed to an inline function is still a constant -- so if we're using gcc 3, just use the dynamic test. This is bad for performance, but if you care about performance, don't use an ancient, known-to-optimize-poorly compiler.
