Subject: [112/197] x86, cacheinfo: Add cache index disable sysfs attrs only to L3 caches

2.6.32-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Borislav Petkov <borislav.petkov@....com>

commit 897de50e08937663912c86fb12ad7f708af2386c upstream.

The cache_disable_[01] attribute in

/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu?/cache/index[0-3]/

is enabled on all cache levels although only L3 supports it. Add it only
to the cache level that actually supports it.
