My last (still current) request remains "please quirk it". See the end
of <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1952205/focus=1996025>,
and other messages in that subthread.

I haven't been following kernel development, so maybe the quirk has not
happened. No clue.

... "VM resetting" looks something different though; I've been under the
impression that the pedantic (=unquirked) MTRR configuration didn't
impact other things than speed. Janusz, maybe you could contribute with
a host kernel bisection for the VM reset symptom.

Thanks
Laszlo
