This patch adds special support for the Intel Pentium III processor to the Linux kernel.

In detail you can configure the following with menuconfig:
- Processor Family "PIII/Xeon/Deschutes"  
- Extended/Fast FPU save and restore support (works with some PIIs as well)
- MMX/MMX2 specific optimisations (aka Intel SSE)

Apply this patch i.e. so:
  cd /usr/src
  zcat piii.gz | patch -p0 -E
