Subject: [PATCH 01/01][retry 2] x86: L3 cache index disable for 2.6.26

New versions of AMD processors have support to disable parts
of their L3 caches if too many MCEs are generated by the
L3 cache.  

This patch provides a /sysfs interface under the cache
hierarchy to display which caches indices are disabled
(if any) and to monitoring applications to disable a
cache index.

This patch does not set an automatic policy to disable
the L3 cache.  Policy decisions would need to be made
by a RAS handler.  This patch merely makes it easier to
see what indices are currently disabled.

+What:           /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cache/index*/cache_disable_X
+Date:           Augsust 2008
+KernelVersion:  2.6.27
+Contact:        osrc-kernel@...e.amd.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 disable.
+
+		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_docs/31116.PDF
+		for formatting information and other details on the
+		cache index disable.
