From: Yuri Tikhonov yur@emcraft.com

The CPU POST test code (run from cpu_post_exec_31()) doesn't follow the ABI carefully, at least the CR3, CR4, and CR5 fields of CR are clobbered by it. The gcc-4.2 with its more aggressive optimization exposes this fact. This patch just saves the CR value before running the test code, so allowing it to do anything it wants with CR.
