User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4.1) Gecko/20031009

Description of problem:
The shared runqueue patch misformats /proc/cpuinfo output.  Specifically, the
flags line.  This causes VMware's configuration script to fail.  Attached is a
patch against arch/i386/kernel/setup.c to fix the issue.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel-smp-2.4.22-1.2088.nptl

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
cat /proc/cpuinfo on a SMP system with Hyperthreading

Actual Results:  The CPU flags are split across multiple lines.

Expected Results:  CPU flags should be on one line.
