We still officially support the ancient i486 cpu. First generation
versions of this processor do not have the CPUID instruction, though
later versions do. Therefore you must check that the cpu supports
it before using it. At present it fails with an "Illegal Instruction"
signal on the early processors.
This code was based on similar code in the gcc package.

You could've copied have_cpuid_p() from arch/x86/kernel/cpu/common.c

We don't support gcc < 3
#if GCC_VERSION < 30200
# error Sorry, your compiler is too old - please upgrade it.
#endif
There's even talk currently to raise the minimum version to 4.9 or so.

Can you provide an URL for the code used as a reference, please?

But this is for the kernel build process, right? If we don't have a
strict reason to forbid archeology... 8-)
