x86/mm/mtrr: Fix MTRR state checks in mtrr_type_lookup()
'mtrr_state.enabled' contains the FE (fixed MTRRs enabled)
and E (MTRRs enabled) flags in MSR_MTRRdefType. Intel SDM,
section 11.11.2.1, defines these flags as follows:
- All MTRRs are disabled when the E flag is clear.
The FE flag has no affect when the E flag is clear.
- The default type is enabled when the E flag is set.
- MTRR variable ranges are enabled when the E flag is set.
- MTRR fixed ranges are enabled when both E and FE flags
are set.
MTRR state checks in __mtrr_type_lookup() do not match with SDM.
Hence, this patch makes the following changes:
- The current code detects MTRRs disabled when both E and
FE flags are clear in mtrr_state.enabled. Fix to detect
MTRRs disabled when the E flag is clear.
- The current code does not check if the FE bit is set in
mtrr_state.enabled when looking at the fixed entries.
Fix to check the FE flag.
- The current code returns the default type when the E flag
is clear in mtrr_state.enabled. However, the default type
is UC when the E flag is clear. Remove the code as this
case is handled as MTRR disabled with the 1st change.
In addition, this patch defines the E and FE flags in
mtrr_state.enabled as follows.
- FE flag: MTRR_STATE_MTRR_FIXED_ENABLED
- E flag: MTRR_STATE_MTRR_ENABLED
print_mtrr_state() and x86_get_mtrr_mem_range() are also updated
accordingly.
