Yes, agree!

Will change as below. Please help to check if it is OK. Thanks a lot.
static int __init ffh_cstate_init(void)
{
- struct cpuinfo_x86 *c = &boot_cpu_data;
-
- if (c->x86_vendor != X86_VENDOR_INTEL &&
- c->x86_vendor != X86_VENDOR_AMD &&
- c->x86_vendor != X86_VENDOR_HYGON)
+ if (!boot_cpu_has(X86_FEATURE_MWAIT))
return -1;
