Does this translate to: "we should remove that cleanup crap"? I'd be
positive to that. :-)

Why, what's wrong with that thing?


Why do you need it if you don't think adding MTRRs dynamically is
important?

Having a sub-optimal MTRR setup doesn't matter unless you are running
out of MTRRs to use. When you are not adding MTRRs, you can't run out
of them.

This in turn means you don't need mtrr_cleanup().
