I cannot spot anything really special in the logs -- it's just ordinary 
system ram -- except:

[    0.000027] MTRR fixed ranges enabled:
[    0.000028]   00000-9FFFF write-back
[    0.000029]   A0000-BFFFF uncachable

[    0.000039]   6 disabled
[    0.000040]   7 disabled

Not sure if "2 base 000100000000" indicates something nasty. Not sure 
how to interpret the masks.

Can you provide the output of "cat /proc/mtrr" ?
