[PATCH 1/3] x86, cacheinfo: Fix disabling of L3 cache indexes

From: Borislav Petkov
Date: Tue Jan 19 2010 - 06:15:47 EST


* Correct the masks used for writing the cache index disable indexes.
* Do not turn off L3 scrubber - it is not necessary.
* Make sure wbinvd is executed on the same node where the L3 is.
* Check for out-of-bounds values written to the registers.
* Make show_cache_disable hex values unambiguous
* Check for Erratum #388
