4.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 99c13b8c8896d7bcb92753bf0c63a8de4326e78d upstream. The pat_enabled() logic is broken on CPUs which do not support PAT and where the initialization code fails to call pat_init(). Due to that the enabled flag stays true and pat_enabled() returns true wrongfully. As a consequence the mappings, e.g. for Xorg, are set up with the wrong caching mode and the required MTRR setups are omitted. To cure this the following changes are required: 1) Make pat_enabled() return true only if PAT initialization was invoked and successful. 2) Invoke init_cache_modes() unconditionally in setup_arch() and remove the extra callsites in pat_disable() and the pat disabled code path in pat_init(). Also rename __pat_enabled to pat_disabled to reflect the real purpose of this variable.
