    fusion: remove dead MTRR code · 8cd1943b
    Luis R. Rodriguez authored
    If and when this gets enabled the driver could should split
    up IO memory space properly and that is quite a bit of work.
    Just remove the uncommented dead MTRR code then.
    
    There are a few motivations for this:
    
    a) Take advantage of PAT when available
    
    b) Help bury MTRR code away, MTRR is architecture specific and on
       x86 its replaced by PAT
    
    c) Help with the goal of eventually using _PAGE_CACHE_UC over
       _PAGE_CACHE_UC_MINUS on x86 on ioremap_nocache() (see commit
       de33c442
    
     titled "x86 PAT: fix performance drop for glx,
       use UC minus for ioremap(), ioremap_nocache() and
       pci_mmap_page_range()")
