The private pointer provided by the cacheinfo code is used to implement the AMD L3 cache-specific attributes using a pointer to the northbridge descriptor. It is needed for performing L3-specific operations and for that we need a couple of PCI devices and other service information, all contained in the northbridge descriptor. This results in failure of cacheinfo setup as shown below as cache_get_priv_group() returns the uninitialised private attributes which are not valid for Intel processors. ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 1 at fs/sysfs/group.c:102 internal_create_group+0x151/0x280() sysfs: (bin_)attrs not set by subsystem for group: index3/ Modules linked in: CPU: 3 PID: 1 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 4.0.0-rc3+ #1 Hardware name: Dell Inc.
