venkatesh.pallipadi@intel.com 8323444b5d x86: PAT Update validate_pat_support for intel CPUs ...

Pentium III and Core Solo/Duo CPUs have an erratum
" Page with PAT set to WC while associated MTRR is UC may consolidate to UC "
which can result in WC setting in PAT to be ineffective. We will disable
PAT on such CPUs, so that we can continue to use MTRR WC setting.
