If we build a x86_64 kernel for an AMD64 or for an Intel EMT64, no need to

Reserve alternative_input only for a generic kernel.
An EM64T kernel should still boot on AMD64 and vice versa. Rejected.

OK, I wrongly assumed the 'MK8' or 'MPSC' choices were like x86 choices :
A kernel compiled for a Pentium-4 will not run on a i486.
But then what is the meaning of the choice "Generic-x86-64" in the "Processor family" menu ?
The Help message is : CONFIG_GENERIC_CPU: Generic x86-64 CPU.
