On some machines, buggy BIOSes don't properly setup WB MTRRs to cover all
available RAM, meaning the last few megs (or even gigs) of memory will be
marked uncached. Since Linux tends to allocate from high memory addresses
first, this causes the machine to be unusably slow as soon as the kernel
starts really using memory (i.e. right around init time).
This patch works around the problem by scanning the MTRRs at boot and
figuring out whether the current end_pfn value (setup by early e820 code)
goes beyond the highest WB MTRR range, and if so, trimming it to match. A
fairly obnoxious KERN_WARNING is printed too, letting the user know that
not all of their memory is available due to a likely BIOS bug.
Something similar could be done on i386 if needed, but the boot ordering
would be slightly different, since the MTRR code on i386 depends on the
boot_cpu_data structure being setup.
This patch fixes a bug in the last patch that caused the code to run on
non-Intel machines (AMD machines apparently don't need it and it's untested
on other non-Intel machines, so best keep it off).

Rather than remove and/or mangle inb_p/outb_p we want to remove the use
of them from inappropriate places. For the PIC/PIT this may eventually
depend on 32/64bitism or similar so start by adding inb/outb_pit and
inb/outb_pic so that we can make them use any scheme we settle on without
disturbing the existing, correct (for ISA), port 0x80 usage. (eg we can
make inb_pit use udelay without messing up inb_p).
Floppy already does this for the fdc. That really only leaves the CMOS as

When the _PAGE_FOO constants are defined as (1ul << _PAGE_BIT_FOO), they
become unsigned longs. In 32-bit PAE mode, these end up being
implicitly cast to 64-bit types when used to manipulate a pte, and
because they're unsigned the top 32-bits are 0, destroying the upper
bits of the pte.
When _PAGE_FOO constants are given a signed integer type, the cast to
64-bits will sign-extend so that the upper bits are all ones,
preserving the upper pte bits in manipulations.
Explain this in a prominent place.

Put all the defines for mapping pagetable operations to their native
versions (for the non-paravirt case) into one place. Make the
corresponding changes to paravirt.h.
The tricky part here is that when a pagetable entry can't be updated
atomically (ie, 32-bit PAE), we need special handlers for pte_clear,
set_pte_atomic and set_pte_present. However, the other two modes
don't need special handling for these, and can use a common
set_pte(_at) path.
