x86/mm/pat: Don't report PAT on CPUs that don't support it
commit 99c13b8c8896d7bcb92753bf0c63a8de4326e78d upstream.
The pat_enabled() logic is broken on CPUs which do not support PAT and
where the initialization code fails to call pat_init(). Due to that the
enabled flag stays true and pat_enabled() returns true wrongfully.
As a consequence the mappings, e.g. for Xorg, are set up with the wrong
caching mode and the required MTRR setups are omitted.
To cure this the following changes are required:
1) Make pat_enabled() return true only if PAT initialization was
invoked and successful.
2) Invoke init_cache_modes() unconditionally in setup_arch() and
remove the extra callsites in pat_disable() and the pat disabled
code path in pat_init().
Also rename __pat_enabled to pat_disabled to reflect the real purpose of
this variable.
Fixes: 9cd25aac1f44 ("x86/mm/pat: Emulate PAT when it is disabled")
