Subject: [PATCH 0/4] x86: urgent fixes for AMD Magny-Cours support

Hi,

so finally I've created a basic set of patches to fix Linux for AMD
Magny-Cours CPU. Basic means no new sysfs attributes, no new cpumasks
etc.  Most of it is AMD specific code. Only patch 4 modifies a more
generic x86 function.

I kindly ask to apply these patches for .31 -- even so late in the
game. It should not introduce regressions but allows to run .31 on
Magny-Cours without hiccups.

If it is really too late for .31 it should be scheduled for .32 and I'll try
to bring it into stable-31.

Thanks!

Andreas
