Good catch!  I can confirm this is a correct bandaid.  We cannot 
restore this MSR without restoring entire MTRR map.  Actually, I 
should have written separate functions to save/restore all global 
MSRs.  Only per-CPU MSRs should be embedded like that.

My dual-core CPU seems to resume okay but quite unstable.  Can you try 
something like the following in amd64/mp_machdep.c and tell me if it 
helps?

It is very common problem for modern video cards.  We cannot do much 
here without help of GPU-specific routines (e.g., ATI ATOM BIOS 
parser for RadeonHD) or in-kernel realmode emulation[1] (e.g., 
NetBSD).

Thanks for the feedback!
