Subject[14/28] x86, amd: Disable GartTlbWlkErr when BIOS forgets it
2.6.32-longterm review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

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

From: Joerg Roedel <joerg.roedel@amd.com>

commit 5bbc097d890409d8eff4e3f1d26f11a9d6b7c07e upstream.

This patch disables GartTlbWlk errors on AMD Fam10h CPUs if
the BIOS forgets to do is (or is just too old). Letting
these errors enabled can cause a sync-flood on the CPU
causing a reboot.

The AMD BKDG recommends disabling GART TLB Wlk Error completely.

This patch is the fix for

https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=33012

on my machine.
