i386 Transparent Paravirtualization Subarch Patch #1

This change encapsulates MSR register accessors and moves them into the
sub-architecture layer.  The goal is a clean, uniform interface that may
be redefined on new sub-architectures of i386.


I currently have nothing analgous for Xen, but this one looks sane.

I would like to strongly request one addition, however: please make itso that a subarchitecture which is still a hardware architecture doesn'thave to redefine all of these every time.
