On Windows, with the hang bit set, we do the cache line replacement after an 
error occurs, but nothing else [so L3 log registers are definitely responsive, 
I don't know if other memory is also].

I guess we want a hang-on-L3-error bit at context creation. But that seems 
orthogonal to fixing l3 error reporting on hsw and wiring up the test 
facilities, so I'd wait until someone screams for this.
