Use the MTRR macros to identify the ranges of possible MTRR MSRs instead of bounding the ranges with a mismash of open coded values and unrelated MSR indices. Carving out the gap for the machine check MSRs in particular is confusing, as it's easy to incorrectly think the case statement handles MCE MSRs instead of skipping them. Drop the range-based funneling of MSRs between the end of the MCE MSRs and MTRR_DEF_TYPE, i.e. 0x2A0-0x2FF, and instead handle MTTR_DEF_TYPE as the one-off case that it is. Extract PAT (0x277) as well in anticipation of dropping PAT "handling" from the MTRR code. Keep the range-based handling for the variable+fixed MTRRs even though capturing unknown MSRs 0x214-0x24F is arguably "wrong". There is a gap in the fixed MTRRs, 0x260-0x267, i.e. the MTRR code needs to filter out unknown MSRs anyways, and using a single range generates marginally better code for the big switch statement.

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.
