Revert "x86 PAT: remove CPA WARN_ON for zero pte"

This reverts commit 58dab916dfb57328d50deb0aa9b3fc92efa248ff, which
makes my Nehalem come to a nasty crawling almost-halt.  It looks like it
turns off caching of regular kernel RAM, with the understandable
slowdown of a few orders of magnitude as a result.
