x86/pat: Fix pat_x_mtrr_type() for MTRR disabled case
Since
72cbc8f04fe2 ("x86/PAT: Have pat_enabled() properly reflect state when running on Xen")
PAT can be enabled without MTRR.
This has resulted in problems e.g. for a SEV-SNP guest running under Hyper-V,
when trying to establish a new mapping via memremap() with WB caching mode, as
pat_x_mtrr_type() will call mtrr_type_lookup(), which in turn is returning
MTRR_TYPE_INVALID due to MTRR being disabled in this configuration.
The result is a mapping with UC- caching, leading to severe performance
degradation.
Fix that by handling MTRR_TYPE_INVALID the same way as MTRR_TYPE_WRBACK
in pat_x_mtrr_type() because MTRR_TYPE_INVALID means MTRRs are disabled.
