77ef50a522 x86: consolidate header guards
This patch is the result of an automatic script that consolidates the
format of all the headers in include/asm-x86/.

The format:

1. No leading underscore. Names with leading underscores are reserved.
2. Pathname components are separated by two underscores. So we can
   distinguish between mm_types.h and mm/types.h.
3. Everything except letters and numbers are turned into single
   underscores.

499f8f84b8 x86: rename pat_wc_enabled to pat_enabled
BTW, what does pat_wc_enabled stand for? Does it mean
"write-combining"?

Currently it is used to globally switch on or off PAT support.
Thus I renamed it to pat_enabled.
I think this increases readability (and hope that I didn't miss
something).

8d4a430085 x86: cleanup PAT cpu validation
Move the scattered checks for PAT support to a single function. Its
moved to addon_cpuid_features.c as this file is shared between 32 and
64 bit.

Remove the manipulation of the PAT feature bit and just disable PAT in
the PAT layer, based on the PAT bit provided by the CPU and the
current CPU version/model white list.

Change the boot CPU check so it works on Voyager somewhere in the
future as well :) Also panic, when a secondary has PAT disabled but
the primary one has alrady switched to PAT. We have no way to undo
that.

The white list is kept for now to ensure that we can rely on known to
work CPU types and concentrate on the software induced problems
instead of fighthing CPU erratas and subtle wreckage caused by not yet
verified CPUs. Once the PAT code has stabilized enough, we can remove
the white list and open the can of worms.

2e5d9c857d 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.
