[PATCH v4 11/12] x86/mtrr: don't let mtrr_type_lookup() return MTRR_TYPE_INVALID

[Juergen Gross]

mtrr_type_lookup() should always return a valid memory type. In case
there is no information available, it should return the default UC.

This will remove the last case where mtrr_type_lookup() can return
MTRR_TYPE_INVALID, so adjust the comment in include/uapi/asm/mtrr.h.

Note that removing the MTRR_TYPE_INVALID #define from that header
could break user code, so it has to stay.

At the same time the mtrr_type_lookup() stub for the !CONFIG_MTRR
case should set uniform to 1, as if the memory range would be
covered by no MTRR at all.

V2:
- always set uniform
- set uniform to 1 in case of disabled MTRRs (Linus Torvalds)
V3:
- adjust include/uapi/asm/mtrr.h comment
