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. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <[email protected]>
