Just for the record. This driver would fall apart today if the socket ids
would be > 7. The uncore extra PCI devs assume a fixed mapping between the
physid in their config space and the physid of the socket. If the pci config

#define UNCORE_SOCKET_MAX 8
struct pci_dev
*uncore_extra_pci_dev[UNCORE_SOCKET_MAX][UNCORE_EXTRA_PCI_DEV_MAX];
Of course there is no range check for this either. uncore_pci_probe() sticks
it blindly into the array....
