All applied, I reformatted the comments in this last one a bit and made
the warning message hopefully a bit more descriptive:

Subject: [PATCH] x86/mm: Enhance MTRR checks in kernel mapping helpers
This patch adds the argument 'uniform' to mtrr_type_lookup(), which gets
set to 1 when a given range is covered uniformly by MTRRs, i.e. the
range is fully covered by a single MTRR entry or the default type.
Change pud_set_huge() and pmd_set_huge() to honor the 'uniform' flag to
see if it is safe to create a huge page mapping in the range.
This allows them to create a huge page mapping in a range covered by
a single MTRR entry of any memory type. It also detects a non-optimal
request properly. They continue to check with the WB type since it does
not effectively change the uniform mapping even if a request spans
multiple MTRR entries.
pmd_set_huge() logs a warning message to a non-optimal request so that
driver writers will be aware of such a case. Drivers should make a
mapping request aligned to a single MTRR entry when the range is covered
by MTRRs.
