113 * There is no good nop for all x86 archs.
114 * We will default to using the P6_NOP5, but first we
115 * will test to make sure that the nop will actually
116 * work on this CPU. If it faults, we will then
117 * go to a lesser efficient 5 byte nop. If that fails
118 * we then just use a jmp as our nop. This isn't the most
119 * efficient nop, but we can not use a multi part nop
120 * since we would then risk being preempted in the middle
121 * of that nop, and if we enabled tracing then, it might
122 * cause a system crash.
124 * TODO: check the cpuid to determine the best nop.
