3.13.11.8 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini at redhat.com>
commit 0d234daf7e0a3290a3a20c8087eefbd6335a5bd4 upstream.
This reverts commit 682367c494869008eb89ef733f196e99415ae862,
which causes 32-bit SMP Windows 7 guests to panic.
SeaBIOS has a limit on the number of MTRRs that it can handle,
and this patch exceeded the limit. Better revert it.
Thanks to Nadav Amit for debugging the cause.
