Here is output from MCE log, for that one in ML

And from Ward:
CPU 0 4 northbridge   Northbridge RAM Chipkill ECC error
   Chipkill ECC syndrome = fd51
        bit32 = err cpu0
        bit45 = uncorrected ecc error
        bit57 = processor context corrupt
        bit59 = misc error valid

STATUS fe28a001fd080813 MCGSTATUS 4

Seems something went wrong with ECC. Maybe because the memory is not cleared 
anymore?

Can someone test if 
http://tracker.coreboot.org/trac/coreboot/changeset/4099/trunk/coreboot-v2/src/cpu/amd/car/clear_init_ram.c

this change is reverted problem goes away?
