Virtual machines can be run with CPUID such that there are no MTRRs.
In that case, the firmware will never enable MTRRs and it is obviously
undesirable to run the guest entirely with UC memory. Check out guest
CPUID, and use WB memory if MTRR do not exist.

Conversion of MTRRs to ranges used the maxphyaddr from the boot CPU.
This is wrong, because var_mtrr_range's mask variable then is discontiguous
(like FF00FFFF000, where the first run of 0s corresponds to the bits
between host and guest maxphyaddr). Instead always set up the masks
to be full 64-bit values---we know that the reserved bits at the top
are zero, and we can restore them when reading the MSR. This way
var_mtrr_range gets a mask that just works.

This fixes the slow-down of VM running with pci-passthrough, since some MTRR
range changed from MTRR_TYPE_WRBACK to MTRR_TYPE_UNCACHABLE. Memory in the
0K-640K range was incorrectly treated as uncacheable.

kvm_mtrr_get_guest_memory_type never returns -1 which is implied
in the current code since if @type = -1 (means no MTRR contains the
range), iter.partial_map must be true

Based on Intel's SDM, mapping huge page which do not have consistent
memory cache for each 4k page will cause undefined behavior
In order to avoiding this kind of undefined behavior, we force to use
4k pages under this case

Two functions are introduced:
- fixed_mtrr_addr_to_seg() translates the address to the fixed
MTRR segment
- fixed_mtrr_addr_seg_to_range_index() translates the address to
the index of kvm_mtrr.fixed_ranges[]
They will be used in the later patch
