x86/PCI/PAT: return EINVAL for pci mmap WC request for !pat_enabled 

Thomas Schlichter reported:
> X.org uses libpciaccess which tries to mmap with write combining enabled via
> /sys/bus/pci/devices/*/resource0_wc. Currently, when PAT is not enabled, the
> kernel does fall back to uncached mmap. Then libpciaccess thinks it succeeded
> mapping with write combining enabled and does not set up suited MTRR entries.
> ;-(

Instead of silently mapping pci mmap region as UC minus in the case
of !pat_enabled and wc request, we can return error. Eric Anholt mentioned
that caller (like X) typically follows up with UC minus pci mmap request and
if there is a free mtrr slot, caller will manage adding WC mtrr.

Jesse Barnes says:
> Older versions of libpciaccess will behave better if we do it that way
> (iirc it only allocates an MTRR if the resource_wc file doesn't exist or
> fails to get mapped).
