Revert "Intel(R) Memory Protection Extensions (Intel(R) MPX) support."

This reverts commit rL280668 because the register tests fail on i386
Linux.

I investigated a little bit what causes the failure - there are missing
registers when running 'register read -a'.
This is the output I got at the bottom:
"""
...
Memory Protection Extensions:
      bnd0 = {0x0000000000000000 0x0000000000000000}
      bnd1 = {0x0000000000000000 0x0000000000000000}
      bnd2 = {0x0000000000000000 0x0000000000000000}
      bnd3 = {0x0000000000000000 0x0000000000000000}

unknown:
2 registers were unavailable.
"""

Also looking at the packets exchanged between the client and server:
"""

"""

The bndcfgu and bndstatus registers don't have the 'Memory Protections
Extension' set. I looked at the code and it seems that that is set
correctly.

So I'm not sure what's the problem or where does it come from.

Also there is a second failure related to something like this in the
tests:
"""
registerSet.GetName().lower()
"""

For some reason the registerSet.GetName() returns None.
