Aside of the unparseable changelog, that patch is mostly duct tape.
1) __pat_enabled should be renamed to pat_disabled, as that is the actual
purpose of that variable
2) Making the call to init_cache_modes() conditional in setup_arch() is
pointless. init_cache_modes() has it's own protection against multiple
invocations.
3) It adds yet another invocation of init_cache_modes() instead of getting
rid of the ones in pat_disable() and the pat disabled case in pat_init().
I've reworked the whole thing into the patch below.
Thanks,
tglx

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.

Yes - renaming __pat_enabled to pat_disabled is a good thing.
Just one more change - init_cache_modes() is protected against multiple
calls, but pat_bsp_init() calls __init_cache_modes() (not
init_cacha_modes()). The generic code would call init_cache_modes() later
and init_cache_modes() would do the initialization again - it would be
mostly harmless because it would just read the pat MSR that pat_bsp_init
have written and call __init_cache_modes() with the same value - the
symptom is that on machines with PAT we see this line twice in the syslog:
[ 0.000000] x86/PAT: Configuration [0-7]: WB WC UC- UC WB WC UC- WT
[ 0.000000] x86/PAT: Configuration [0-7]: WB WC UC- UC WB WC UC- WT
I fixed this double initialization by moving the variable init_cm_done to
file scope and setting it in __init_cache_modes().

x86/mm/pat: Don't report PAT on CPUs that don't support it
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

To cure this the following changes are required:
1) Make pat_enabled() return true only if PAT initialization was

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.
