The reference to the erratum is useful for people who want to see more
details, but at least a short description of the problem being fixed
and systems affected by the quirk is needed. 'DRAM scrub' is not very
informative.


Ok, I'll reword the comment in a V2.
But there's an internal discussion going on about the erratum, so I'll hold off spinning a V2 until that's over..

Thanks,
