The thing is: the bits to check for SSE, SSE2, ..., AVX, AVX2, AVX-512? They're in the same spot on Intel and AMD CPUs. So you don't need to switch based on man

The thing is: the bits to check for SSE, SSE2, ..., AVX, AVX2, AVX-512? They're in the same spot on Intel and AMD CPUs. So you don't need to switch based on manufacturer. The fact that they force a `GenuineIntel` check makes it seems malicious to many.
