    x86/mm/pat: Add support of non-default PAT MSR setting · 02f037d6
    Toshi Kani authored
    In preparation for fixing a regression caused by:
    
      9cd25aac ("x86/mm/pat: Emulate PAT when it is disabled")'
    
    ... PAT needs to support a case that PAT MSR is initialized with a
    non-default value.
    
    When pat_init() is called and PAT is disabled, it initializes the
    PAT table with the BIOS default value. Xen, however, sets PAT MSR
    with a non-default value to enable WC. This causes inconsistency
    between the PAT table and PAT MSR when PAT is set to disable on Xen.
    
    Change pat_init() to handle the PAT disable cases properly.  Add
    init_cache_modes() to handle two cases when PAT is set to disable.
    
     1. CPU supports PAT: Set PAT table to be consistent with PAT MSR.
     2. CPU does not support PAT: Set PAT table to be consistent with
        PWT and PCD bits in a PTE.
    
    Note, __init_cache_modes(), renamed from pat_init_cache_modes(),
    will be changed to a static function in a later patch.
