Tested and porting just those 3 patches are enough to fix the Broadwell bug. So, I submitted a v2 of this series with just those. They all need to be backported to stable. I still think that other TLB patches are needed/desired upstream, but I'll submit them on a separate series. Let's fix the regression first ;-) Regards, Mauro
