+Description:	Cache id
+
+		The id identifies a hardware cache of the system within a given
+		cache index in a set of cache indices. The "index" name is
+		simply a nomenclature from CPUID's leaf 4 which enumerates all
+		caches on the system by referring to each one as a cache index.
+		The (cache index, cache id) pair is unique for the whole
+		system.
+
+		Currently id is implemented on x86. On other platforms, id is
+		not enabled yet.
