The only difference between Athlon XP and Athlon MP is that the MP
variants are certified for multi-processor use (in reality most Athlon
XP also worked just fine in multi-processor systems, or could easily be
modified to do so.) Available instructions and registers are identical
between the two. Mobile variants of the Athlon XP should also be
identical from a programming point of view.
