Re: [patches] [PATCH] [17/58] i386: Add L3 cache support to AMD CPUID4 emulation

["Andreas Herrmann" <andreas.herrmann3@amd.com>]

I think, Joachim's patch (sent to patches@x86-64.org on June 14) should
be added as well. I have attached his patch below.


Regards,

Andreas

This will allow the size field to be reported for all values instead of a 
handful and also fills the shard_cpu_map with meaning full value.
