+ * online (either at the end of boot or resume or during a runtime cpu
+ * online). If we're doing that, @reg is set to something special and on
+ * this cpu we still do mtrr_if->set_all(). During boot/resume, this
+ * is unnecessary if at this point we are still on the cpu that started
+ * the boot/resume sequence. But there is no guarantee that we are still
+ * on the same cpu. So we do mtrr_if->set_all() on this cpu aswell to be
