Thanks, Juan for your help

Now, the files are patched, but CPUVENDOR_VIA is undefined in identcpu.c

I supose CPUVENDOR_VIA is needed in arch/x86/include/cputypes.h

/*
  * CPU vendors
  */

#define CPUVENDOR_UNKNOWN       -1
#define CPUVENDOR_INTEL         0
#define CPUVENDOR_CYRIX         1
#define CPUVENDOR_NEXGEN        2
#define CPUVENDOR_AMD           3
#define CPUVENDOR_IDT           4
#define CPUVENDOR_TRANSMETA     5

I dont know if one of these is VIA, or we need a new entry...
In this case, I dont know which new number could be the right one.

Thanks again
