So if you would prefer u64 rdtsc64(), u32 rdtsc_low(), u64 rdmsr64(int

it's a more invasive change...
rdmsrl is really misnamed. It should have been rdmsrq to be consistent,
and have rdmsrl return the low 32 bits.
I prefer the more explicit linux-style naming of rdmsr_low32/rdmsr64,
myself, even though this is x86-specific code. Noone has an excuse for
misunderstanding then...
Well, we *do* have readb/readw/readl/readq etc.
