Change msr-reg.o to obj-y (it will be included in virtually every
kernel since it is used by the initialization code for AMD processors)
and add a separate C file to export its symbols to modules, so that
msr.ko can use them; on uniprocessors we bypass the helper functions
in msr.o and use the accessor functions directly via inlines.
