According to the CVS tree, it looks like Mike Smith decided to rewrite the
P6 hardware optimisations as a separate file (/sys/i386/i386/i686_mem.c),
but the new functions don't seem to be called yet.

Peter commented out the old getmtrr() / putmtrr() calls on the 7th because
they were not there any further and thus broke a kernel make.

I suspect Mike will fix this soon...
