Subject[patch 17/33] cache_k8_northbridges() overflows beyond allocation
-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Badari Pulavarty <pbadari@gmail.com>

cache_k8_northbridges() overflows beyond allocation

cache_k8_northbridges() is storing config values to incorrect locations
(in flush_words) and also its overflowing beyond the allocation, causing
slab verification failures.
