when mtrr is not covering all e820 table, need to trim the ram, need to
update e820

reuse some code for x86_64

here need to add early_identify_cpu for x86_32, and move mtrr_bp_init early

compiled test only, need someone test it

I like this approach too. So as long as the E820 modification method works
(i.e. we have some testers, maybe Justin can give it a try), you can add

Signed-off-by: Jesse Barnes <jesse.barnes@xxxxxxxxx>

or

Acked-by: Jesse Barnes <jesse.barnes@xxxxxxxxx>

as appropriate too.

Thanks,
Jesse
