- 19990213 Zoltán Böszörményi <zboszor@mail.externet.hu>

- Since Cyrix don't support Intel APIC, this is l'art pour l'art.
- Weigh ARRs by size:
- If size <= 32M is given, set up ARR# we were given.
- If size > 32M is given, set up ARR7 only if it is free,
- fail otherwise.
- 19990214 Zoltán Böszörményi <zboszor@mail.externet.hu>
- Also check for size >= 256K if we are to set up ARR7,

- 19990512 Richard Gooch <rgooch@atnf.csiro.au>
- Minor cleanups.
- v1.35
- 19990707 Zoltán Böszörményi <zboszor@mail.externet.hu>
- Check whether ARR3 is protected in cyrix_get_free_region()
- and mtrr_del(). The code won't attempt to delete or change it
- from now on if the BIOS protected ARR3. It silently skips ARR3
- in cyrix_get_free_region() or returns with an error code from
- mtrr_del().
- 19990711 Zoltán Böszörményi <zboszor@mail.externet.hu>
- Reset some bits in the CCRs in cyrix_arr_init() to disable SMM
- if ARR3 isn't protected. This is needed because if SMM is active
- and ARR3 isn't protected then deleting and setting ARR3 again
- may lock up the processor. With SMM entirely disabled, it does
- not happen.
- 19990812 Zoltán Böszörményi <zboszor@mail.externet.hu>
- Rearrange switch() statements so the driver accomodates to
- the fact that the AMD Athlon handles its MTRRs the same way
- as Intel does.
- 19990814 Zoltán Böszörményi <zboszor@mail.externet.hu>
- Double check for Intel in mtrr_add()'s big switch() because
- that revision check is only valid for Intel CPUs.
- 19990819 Alan Cox <alan@redhat.com>
- Tested Zoltan's changes on a pre production Athlon - 100%
- success.
- 19991008 Manfred Spraul <manfreds@colorfullife.com>

- for power management in the future.
