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.
