x86: PAT: make pat_x_mtrr_type() more readable
Clean up over-complications in pat_x_mtrr_type(). And if reserve_memtype() ignores stray req_type bits when pat_enabled, it's better to mask them off when not also. Signed-off-by: Hugh Dickins <hugh@veritas.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
