After MTRR initialization construct a memory map with cache modes from MTRR values. This will speed up lookups via mtrr_lookup_type() especially in case of overlapping MTRRs. This will be needed when switching the semantics of the "uniform" parameter of mtrr_lookup_type() from "only covered by one MTRR" to "memory range has a uniform cache mode", which is the data the callers really want to know. Today this information is not easily available, in case MTRRs are not well sorted regarding base address. The map will be built in __initdata. When memory management is up, the map will be moved to dynamically allocated memory, in order to avoid the need of an overly large array. The size of this array is calculated using the number of variable MTRR registers and the needed size for fixed entries. Only add the map creation and expansion for now. The lookup will be added later. When writing new MTRR entries in the running system rebuild the map inside the call from mtrr_rendezvous_handler() in order to avoid nasty race conditions with concurrent lookups.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
