Now that reserve_ram_pages_type() accepts the WT type, add
set_memory_wt(), set_memory_array_wt() and set_pages_array_wt()
in order to be able to set memory to Write-Through page cache
mode.
Also, extend ioremap_change_attr() to accept the WT type.

Add ioremap_wt() for creating Write-Through mappings on x86. It
follows the same model as ioremap_wc() for multi-arch support.
Define ARCH_HAS_IOREMAP_WT in the x86 version of io.h to
indicate that ioremap_wt() is implemented on x86.
Also update the PAT documentation file to cover ioremap_wt().

non-PAT pages
As part of the effort to phase out MTRR use document
write-combining MTRR effects on pages with different non-PAT
page attributes flags and different PAT entry values. Extend
arch_phys_wc_add() documentation to clarify power of two sizes /
boundary requirements as we phase out mtrr_add() use.
Lastly hint towards ioremap_uc() for corner cases on device
drivers working with devices with mixed regions where MTRR size
requirements would otherwise not enable write-combining
effective memory types.
