How will this work on T3, T2, and T1 which all neither have the
"socket" mdesc nodes nor level 3 caches?

I'm still waiting for you to resolve this Chris.

I don't think it's much effort to make this change back down
to using the level=2 cache if no level=3 cache is found.  Please
implement that and resubmit.

So that does appear to work. This is not the patch. I will send that out shortly but I thought I'd give you a chance to provide feedback while I'm getting that ready.

Here is what I see on a T2.
