Subject: [PATCH] Conform L3 Cache Index Disable to Linux standards

The L3 Cache Index Disable feature to arch/x86/kernel/cpu/intel_cacheinfo.c
accepted in 2.6.28 was inadvertently a preliminary version of the patch
that should not have been accepted.  It did not include ABI documentation
and did not meet the usage standards of a /sys file.

This patch changes that code to use a proposed patch that had the
maintainer's approval but was accidentally not accepted.

It also corrects prevents the patch from being used on AMD processors
that do not currently support L3 Cache Index Disable.

+What:	    /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cache/index*/cache_disable_X
+Date:	    August 2008
+KernelVersion:  2.6.27
+Contact:	 mark.langsd...@....com
+Description:    These files exist in every cpu's cache index directories.
+		 There are currently 2 cache_disable_# files in each
+		 directory.  Reading from these files on a supported
+		 processor will return that cache disable index value
+		 for that processor and node.  Writing to one of these
+		 files will cause the specificed cache index to be disabled.
+
+		 Currently, only AMD Family 10h Processors support cache index
+		 disable, and only for their L3 caches.  See the BIOS and
+		 Kernel Developer's Guide at
+		 http://www.amd.com/us-en/assets/content_type/white_papers_and_tech_do...
+		 for formatting information and other details on the
+		 cache index disable.
