This got me curiously googling around and I found this in an Intel doc
on the Linux kernel:

""ht" in 'flags' field of /proc/cpuinfo indicate that the processor
supports the Machine Specific
Registers to report back HT or multi-core capability. Additional
fields (listed down below) in the
CPU records of /proc/cpuinfo will give more precise information about
the CPU topology as seen
by the operating system. "
