Is this new locking? If so, please describe it.

That's pretty hard to read. Braces will improve it:

if (use_intel()) {
mtrr_state_warn();
} else {
/*
* The CPUs haven't MTRR and seemes not support SMP. They have
* specific drivers, we use a tricky method to support
* suspend/resume for them.

*/
sysdev_driver_register(&cpu_sysdev_class,
&mtrr_sysdev_driver);
}

If this works, it means we're always ignoring the return values and these
things should return void.

Otherwise the !CONFIG_MTRR stubs should be returning an integer. So we
need either:

#ifdef CONFIG_MTRR
extern void mtrr_ap_init(void);
extern void mtrr_bp_init(void);
#else
#define mtrr_ap_init() do {} while (0) (or static inlines)
#define mtrr_bp_init() do {} while (0)
#endif

or

#ifdef CONFIG_MTRR
extern int mtrr_ap_init(void);
extern int mtrr_bp_init(void);
#else
static inline int mtrr_ap_init(void) { return 0; }
static inline int mtrr_bp_init(void) { return 0; }
#endif

Ditto.
