x86: Use REP BSF unconditionally
Make "REP BSF" unconditional, as per the suggestion of hpa and Linus, this removes the insane BSF_PREFIX conditional and simplifies the logic. Suggested-by: "H. Peter Anvin" <hpa@zytor.com> Suggested-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Jan Beulich <jbeulich@suse.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/5058741E020000780009C014@nat28.tlf.novell.com Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
