  No #ifdefs please. Also isn't there some common place where Xen can
  do all of it's magic extra init ?

This init function overrides mtrr_if if its running under Xen, so it needs to happen here. But we can certainly lose the #ifdef.

  Aside of that this patch needs to be split into two. One adding the
  num_var_ranges op and one adding the Xen bits.

OK.

+#include <xen/interface/platform.h>
+#include <asm/xen/hypervisor.h>
+#include <asm/xen/hypercall.h>

+static int __init xen_num_var_ranges(void);

  Can we move the function here please ?
OK.

  Is op.cmd changed in the hypervisor call ?

No, it can be hoisted.

cpu_has_mtrr ..... please

OK.

Thanks,
