Subject: [GIT PULL 3.0.x-stable] AMD F15h cache aliasing fixes

Hi Greg,

as previously discussed, here are the 4 patches needed for addressing
the issue in $Subject. I'm sending them as mails but I have them also in
a git-pullable form in case you'd like to verify them:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/bp/bp.git l1i-3.0.x

Here are the patches on the branch above along with SHA1s (from the
bottom up):

bf27c8742db1e2c01bff6e8e2cce3b14d5d6cca5 x86-32, amd: Move va_align definition to unbreak 32-bit build
57d8c29f231049d7b10a497c8afa42dba4672a70 x86, amd: Move BSP code to cpu_dev helper
28b1d99bcde97b468585bdf6c94fa51931d2a1aa x86: Add a BSP cpu_dev helper
5c303905f98ab4e378488c919cc60483d59002ff x86, amd: Avoid cache aliasing penalties on AMD family 15h

Please apply,
thanks.
