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
   de33c442e titled "x86 PAT: fix performance drop for glx,
   use UC minus for ioremap(), ioremap_nocache() and
   pci_mmap_page_range()")

Hey folks, who's tree should this go through if agreeable?

Hi Luis,

Sorry for delay in response. Actually I was looking for the history of
this section of code but I couldn't find it. Anyway this is dead code
and we are fine with removing this dead code.

James,

Please consider this patch as Acked-by: "Sreekanth Reddy"
<Sreekanth.reddy@avagotech.com>

Regards,
Sreekanth

Great thanks, now who's tree should this patch go through? Last patch for this
driver was in 2014 and went through Christoph, but if Christoph doesn't want to
take it can it go through Andrew's tree?

Sreekanth, can you also update the MAINTAINERS file to reflect recent changes
at your company ?

Christoph, do you mind this going through Andrew's tree? Or do you want to take it?
