x86: PAT infrastructure patch
Sets up pat_init() infrastructure. PAT MSR has following setting. PAT |PCD ||PWT ||| 000 WB _PAGE_CACHE_WB 001 WC _PAGE_CACHE_WC 010 UC- _PAGE_CACHE_UC_MINUS 011 UC _PAGE_CACHE_UC We are effectively changing WT from boot time setting to WC. UC_MINUS is used to provide backward compatibility to existing /dev/mem users(X). reserve_memtype and free_memtype are new interfaces for maintaining alias-free mapping. It is currently implemented in a simple way with a linked list and not optimized. reserve and free tracks the effective memory type, as a result of PAT and MTRR setting rather than what is actually requested in PAT. pat_init piggy backs on mtrr_init as the rules for setting both pat and mtrr are same.
