x86, PAT, PCI: Change vma prot in pci_mmap to reflect inherited prot
While looking at the issue in the thread: http://marc.info/?l=dri-devel&m=123606627824556&w=2 noticed a bug in pci PAT code and memory type setting. PCI mmap code did not set the proper protection in vma, when it inherited protection in reserve_memtype. This bug only affects the case where there exists a WC mapping before X does an mmap with /proc or /sys pci interface. This will cause X userlevel mmap from /proc or /sysfs to fail on fork.
