Series x86/mtrr: fix handling with PAT but without MTRR |

Commit Message

  In order to avoid mappings using the UC- cache attribute, set the
MTRR state to use WB caching as the default.

This is needed in order to cope with the fact that PAT is enabled,
while MTRRs are disabled by the hypervisor.

Unfortunately, Hyper-V does not filter out the MTRR flag from the
CPUID leaf, so this code also needs 

			setup_clear_cpu_cap(X86_FEATURE_MTRR);

before calling mtrr_overwrite_state().  I've got a bug filed for the
Hyper-V team to fix the flag, but clearing the feature here solves the
problem regardless.

Hopefully this #ifdef can go away, per my comment in Patch 2 of
the series.

Okay, will add it.

As said already, fine with me.
