x86, PAT: disable /dev/mem mmap RAM with PAT
disable /dev/mem mmap of RAM with PAT. It makes things safer and eliminates aliasing. A future improvement would be to avoid the range_is_allowed duplication. Signed-off-by: Venkatesh Pallipadi <venkatesh.pallipadi@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
