SubjectRe: [PATCH v3] fusion: remove dead MTRR code
From
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
