---[ end trace a7919e7f17c0a726 ]---

The L3 cache index disable feature of AMD CPUs has to be disabled if the
kernel is running as guest on top of a hypervisor because northbridge
devices are not available to the guest. Currently, this fixes a boot
crash on top of Xen. In the future this will become an issue on KVM as
well.

Check if northbridge devices are present and do not enable the feature
if there are none.
