[PATCH 13/18] x86/mm/pat: Export pat_enabled()

[Borislav Petkov]

From: "Luis R. Rodriguez" <mcgrof@xxxxxxxx>

Two Linux device drivers cannot work with PAT and the work required to
make them work is significant. There is not enough motivation to convert
these drivers over to use PAT properly, the compromise reached is to let
drivers that cannot be ported to PAT check if PAT was enabled and if
so fail on probe with a recommendation to boot with the "nopat" kernel
parameter.
