[PATCH] x86: enable PAT for amd k8 and fam10h

make known_pat_cpu to think amd k8 and fam10h is ok too.

also make tom2 below to be WRBACK

This really should be handled through a CPU flag. Specifically, it
should be handled by disabling the PAT flag if PAT is unusable or
suspect of being unusable; it should *NOT* be stashed away in a
completely separate piece of code.

PAT patches in x86.git latest, only support some intel CPUs.

if (boot_cpu_data.x86_vendor == X86_VENDOR_INTEL &&
(boot_cpu_data.x86 == 0xF ||
(boot_cpu_data.x86 == 6 && boot_cpu_data.x86_model >= 15))) {
if (cpu_has_pat) {
return 1;
}
}

should be moved to setup_64.c?

Yes, which in turn should be merged with the 32-bit code in cpu/*.c.

Personally I would prefer a blacklist rather than a whitelist, but
that's nitpicking.
