Hi,
these are a bunch of fixes which correct the disabling of L3 cache indexes. This is needed, for example, in the case when excessive correctable L3 error rates are observed. In a later step, this functionality will be connected to the mcheck mechanism and used to evaluate occurring L3 tag and data array errors and then disable the respective failing L3 cache regions in order to defer system failure before a sysop can intervene.
Those patches are also good -stable candidates.
Please apply, thanks.
