From 256f7276af20c88b492353710d5d6640b09c3d63 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Borislav Petkov Date: Tue, 15 Dec 2009 16:03:53 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] edac, mce, amd: silence GART TLB errors Although reporting of benign GART TLB errors is disabled in __mcheck_cpu_apply_quirks, those are still being logged, and, as a result, trip up amd64_edac. Pull up reporting check so that machines with loaded edac module bail out early and don't spit fragments into dmesg.
