Yinghai Lu 95ffa2438d x86: mtrr cleanup for converting continuous to discrete layout, v8
some BIOS like to use continus MTRR layout, and X driver can not add
WB entries for graphical cards when 4g or more RAM installed.

the patch will change MTRR to discrete.

mtrr_chunk_size= could be used to have smaller continuous block to hold holes.
default is 256m, could be set according to size of graphics card memory.

mtrr_gran_size= could be used to send smallest mtrr block to avoid run out of MTRRs

v2: fix -1 for UC checking
v3: default to disable, and need use enable_mtrr_cleanup to enable this feature
    skip the var state change warning.
    remove next_basek in range_to_mtrr()
v4: correct warning mask.
v5: CONFIG_MTRR_SANITIZER
v6: fix 1g, 2g, 512 aligment with extra hole
v7: gran_sizek to prevent running out of MTRRs.
v8: fix hole_basek caculation caused when removing next_basek
    gran_sizek using when basek is 0.

need to apply
	[PATCH] x86: fix trimming e820 with MTRR holes.
right after this one.
