Thanks.  Looks like the equivalent should be added to
do_early_mtrr_init() in src/cpu/x86/mtrr/earlymtrr.c.

I had hacked rom caching into entry16.inc (which tinybootblock still
uses), but I no longer think doing that is a good idea.

I think having some documentation on what each coreboot phase does
would help here.  In particular, documenting what gets cached in each
phase would be useful.  I'll send a separate email.
