[Xen-devel] [RFT] x86/pvh: disable all MTRR CPU features on cpuid for dom0



From: "Luis R. Rodriguez" <mcgrof@xxxxxxxx>

Commit 586ab6a by Roger disabled the main MTRR CPU feature
on the cpuid when on pvh in order to avoid having MTRR code
run on the OS on dom0. This missed the fact that not all CPUs
use this cpuid to identify MTRR support, this complets that.

This could in theory fix some potential issues where MTRR
code was previously enabled, for instance running cat /proc/mtrr
on a Linux system where MTRR was actually disabled.

Konrad asked me to submit this. I don't have time to test this
though so it goes as RFT. If it clears through the flames of
xen testing thunder please consider merging.
