I would prefer if we could move the CPU detection code before the MTRR
code; I don't think there is an inherent reason why we shouldn't be able
to. It would be much preferrable to scattering all kinds of CPU
detection information all over the system.
I am going to be away today so I can't look at this myself until
tomorrow at the earliest (tomorrow is a holiday here, though, so I can't
promise I'll be around then either.)
