Fixed 6968646: JVM crashes with SIGFPE during startup
Introduced by changes for 6964774 which added cpuid
processor topology code. Some cpus have max cpuid >= 11
but do not support processor topology:
vendor_id : GenuineIntel
cpu family : 6
model : 23
model name : Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5472 @ 3.00GHz
stepping : 10
cpu MHz : 2403.000
cpu cores : 4
cpuid level : 13
Solution:
Check that cpuid returns valid values for processor
topology (not zeros) and use old code if they are invalid.
Test on failed machine.
