hm, why not have a single test for !highest_pfn:

	if (!highest_pfn) {
		if (!kvm_para_available()) {
  			printk(KERN_WARNING
			       "WARNING: strange, CPU MTRRs all blank?\n");
	  		WARN_ON(1);
		}
		return 0;
	}

? But yeah, your patch looks good otherwise.

I'm not sure how we could detect pure Qemu instances - perhaps it should 
define some special MSR or something?
