  Log:
  Clear bit 22 in MSR IA32_MISC_ENABLE, according to Intel document,
  when the bit 22 is set to 1, CPUID with EAX=0 returns a maximum
  value in EAX[7..0] of 3, when set to 0(default), CPUID with EAX=0
  returns the number corresponding to the maximum standard function
  supported. On my machine, BIOS sets the bit to 1 to make it to be
  compatible with old OS, this causes dual-core Pentium-D (two
  physical cores) to be identified as hyperthreading (two logical
  cores) by function mp_topology().
