Subject: [patch 0/3] x86, CPA: Introduce new APIs set_pages_array[uc|wb]

AGP is moving over to using struct page pointer array in place of
virtual address array. So, it needs a equivalent of set_memory_array_[uc|wb]
which will operate on struct page pointer array instead.

The patch series adds two new interfaces in x86 CPA code,
set_pages_array_uc
set_pages_array_wb

which will change the memory type of a set of pages referred to by struct page
pointers, which need not be contiguous.
