[PATCH 2/3] mtrr, x86: Fix MTRR lookup to handle inclusive entry

[Toshi Kani]

When an MTRR entry is inclusive to a requested range, i.e.
the start and end of the request are not within the MTRR
entry range but the range contains the MTRR entry entirely,
__mtrr_type_lookup() ignores such case because both
start_state and end_state are set to zero.

This patch fixes the issue by adding a new flag, inclusive,
to detect the case.  This case is then handled in the same
way as (!start_state && end_state).

Also updated the comment in __mtrr_type_lookup() to clarify
that the repeat handling is necessary to handle overlaps
with the default type, since overlaps with multiple entries
alone can be handled without such repeat.
