No, it's above MTRRcap for two reasons:

 1. When PAT is moved out of mtrr.c, PAT doesn't get bunded with the other MTRRs
    and so would just need to be hoisted back up.  The end code looks like:

	case MSR_IA32_CR_PAT:
		msr_info->data = vcpu->arch.pat;
		break;
	case MSR_MTRRcap:
	case MTRRphysBase_MSR(0) ... MSR_MTRRfix4K_F8000:
	case MSR_MTRRdefType:
		return kvm_mtrr_get_msr(vcpu, msr_info->index, &msr_info->data);
 
 2. There is no MSR_MTRRcap case statement in kvm_set_msr_common() because it's
    a read-only MSR, i.e. the two can't be symmetric :-)
