From 99e1aa17ce434010dd820b583628370cc15f10f3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yinghai Lu Date: Sat, 4 Oct 2008 14:50:32 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] x86: mtrr_cleanup: first 1M may be covered in var mtrrs The first 1M is don't care when it comes to the variables MTRRs. Cover it as WB as a heuristic approximation; this is generally what we want to minimize the number of registers. Signed-off-by: Yinghai Lu Signed-off-by: H.
