Sure. Not sure that's actually clearer though.

I'm not following the argument, we explicitly *do* modify the end result
for those SNC caches. Also, by doing what you propose, we fail to get a
warning if/when AMD decides to do 'funny' things.
Suppose AMD too thinks this is a swell idea, but they have subtly
different cache behaviour (just for giggles), then it all goes
undetected, which would be bad.

How many parts had that Intel Cluster-on-Die thing? Seeing how all the
new parts have the SNC crud, that seems like a finite list.
Wikipedia seems to suggest haswell and broadwell were the only onces
with COD on, skylake and later has the SNC.
How's something like this then (needs splitting into multiple patches I
suppose):
