New Revision: 305775
URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/305775

Log:
  Merge from stable/11 305768:
  Add a warning about a known erratum we have observed on ThunderX pass 1.1.
  As this is evaluation hardware with only a few users, and there is a lack
  of information add a warning when booting on this hardware.
