I think since we haven't yet published HSW docs, it's pretty fair of you
to ask, and for me to address it publicly.

You're asking the wrong guy... The HW just supports one less address
bit. The bit gets used for some of the cacheability flags later in the
series.

It's in a table in the spec. Unfortunately there is no formula defined
in the spec, but I came up with this one (actually my original formula
had a bug, fixed by Ken).

Not sure what you mean by, "using that in any other patch." I'm not sure
why is that relevant, it's used below.
