    x86: introduce ioremap_wc()
    
    In order for a to-be-introduced ERMS form of memcpy() to not regress
    boot performance on certain systems when video output is active, we
    first need to arrange for avoiding further dependency on firmware
    setting up MTRRs in a way we can actually further modify. On many
    systems, due to the continuously growing amounts of installed memory,
    MTRRs get configured with at least one huge WB range, and with MMIO
    ranges below 4Gb then forced to UC via overlapping MTRRs. mtrr_add(), as
    it is today, can't deal with such a setup. Hence on such systems we
    presently leave the frame buffer mapped UC, leading to significantly
    reduced performance when using REP STOSB / REP MOVSB.
    
    On post-PentiumII hardware (i.e. any that's capable of running 64-bit
    code), an effective memory type of WC can be achieved without MTRRs, by
    simply referencing the respective PAT entry from the PTEs. While this
    will leave the switch to ERMS forms of memset() and memcpy() with
    largely unchanged performance, the change here on its own improves
    performance on affected systems quite significantly: Measuring just the
    individual affected memcpy() invocations yielded a speedup by a factor
    of over 250 on my initial (Skylake) test system. memset() isn't getting
    improved by as much there, but still by a factor of about 20.
    
    While adding {__,}PAGE_HYPERVISOR_WC, also add {__,}PAGE_HYPERVISOR_WT
    to, at the very least, make clear what PTE flags this memory type uses.
