Several drivers currently use mtrr_add through various #ifdef guards
and/or drm wrappers. The vast majority of them want to add WC MTRRs
on x86 systems and don't actually need the MTRR if PAT (i.e.
ioremap_wc, etc) are working.
arch_phys_wc_add and arch_phys_wc_del are new functions, available
on all architectures and configurations, that add WC MTRRs on x86 if
needed (and handle errors) and do nothing at all otherwise. They're
also easier to use than mtrr_add and mtrr_del, so the call sites can
be simplified.
As an added benefit, this will avoid wasting MTRRs and possibly
warning pointlessly on PAT-supporting systems.

Specify the data structures for the 64-bit ioctls with explicit sizing
and padding so that the x32 kernel will correctly use the 64-bit forms
of these ioctls. Note that these ioctls are bogus in both forms on
both 32 and 64 bits; even on 64 bits the maximum MTRR size is only 44
bits long.
Note that nothing really is supposed to use these ioctls and that the
preferred interface is text strings on /proc/mtrr, or better yet,
nothing at all (use /sys/bus/pci/devices/*/resource*_wc for write
combining; that uses PAT not MTRRs.)

mtr_aps_delayed_init was declared u32 and made global, but it only
ever takes boolean values and is only ever used in
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mtrr/main.c. Declare it "static bool" and remove
external references.

SDM Vol 3a section titled "MTRR considerations in MP systems" specifies
the need for synchronizing the logical cpu's while initializing/updating
MTRR.
Currently Linux kernel does the synchronization of all cpu's only when
a single MTRR register is programmed/updated. During an AP online
(during boot/cpu-online/resume) where we initialize all the MTRR/PAT registers,
we don't follow this synchronization algorithm.
This can lead to scenarios where during a dynamic cpu online, that logical cpu
is initializing MTRR/PAT with cache disabled (cr0.cd=1) etc while other logical
HT sibling continue to run (also with cache disabled because of cr0.cd=1
on its sibling).
Starting from Westmere, VMX transitions with cr0.cd=1 don't work properly
(because of some VMX performance optimizations) and the above scenario
(with one logical cpu doing VMX activity and another logical cpu coming online)
can result in system crash.
Fix the MTRR initialization by doing rendezvous of all the cpus. During
boot and resume, we delay the MTRR/PAT init for APs till all the
logical cpu's come online and the rendezvous process at the end of AP's bringup,
will initialize the MTRR/PAT for all AP's.
For dynamic single cpu online, we synchronize all the logical cpus and
do the MTRR/PAT init on the AP that is coming online.

Commit 932d27a7913fc6b3c64c6e6082628b0a1561dec9 exported some mtrr
structures without using the exportable __uX types, causing userspace
build failures.

Change header guards named "ASM_X86__*" to "_ASM_X86_*" since:
a. the double underscore is ugly and pointless.
b. no leading underscore violates namespace constraints.
