Subject: [PATCH V2 2/3] x86: Enable PAT to use cache mode translation tables

Update the translation tables from cache mode to pgprot values
according to the PAT settings. This enables changing the cache
attributes of a PAT index in just one place without having to change
at the users side.

With this change it is possible to use the same kernel with different
PAT configurations, e.g. supporting Xen.
