kernel module to access msr registers

[Stanislav Sedov]

Hi!

As part of my efforts to complete x86info port for FreeBSD, I've
implemented kernel module to access i386/amd64 MSR (Model Specific
Registers) registers. Now, x86info could be used in couple with this
module to retrieve all information about processor.

The module itself is located at http://mbsd.msk.ru/dist/msr-0.1.tar.bz2
port - http://mbsd.msk.ru/dist/devmsr.tar.bz2
Port PR - ports/102158

Unfortunately, I have nor SMP neither amd64 system to test it, so
it would be very appreciated if someone who have access to such
system actually test it. If all goes right, I'll add functionality
to retrieve cpuid information of specific cpu, thus giving x86info
the ability to work properly on SMP systems (currently it can't,
since it can only get cpuid information for cpu it's running on).

Thanks!
