x86/mm/pat: Prepare {reserve, free}_memtype() for "decoy" addresses
In preparation for using set_memory_uc() instead set_memory_np() for isolating poison from speculation, teach the memtype code to sanitize physical addresses vs __PHYSICAL_MASK. The motivation for using set_memory_uc() for this case is to allow ongoing access to persistent memory pages via the pmem-driver + memcpy_mcsafe() until the poison is repaired.
