[PATCH v4 3/7] mtrr, x86: Remove a wrong address check in __mtrr_type_lookup()

From: Toshi Kani
Date: Tue Mar 24 2015 - 18:29:14 EST


__mtrr_type_lookup() checks MTRR fixed ranges when
mtrr_state.have_fixed is set and start is less than
0x100000. However, the 'else if (start < 0x1000000)'
in the code checks with a wrong address as it has
an extra-zero in the address. The code still runs
correctly as this check is meaningless, though.

This patch replaces the wrong address check with 'else'
with no condition.
