That case seems* to have been dismissed. My (very brief) reading of it is that there is no industry-standard definition of what a "core" is (other than possibly being able to simultaneously execute), and what can or cannot be shared among cores. I see no issue with AMD calling a module of two integer units and one floating point unit "two cores"
