Subject: [PATCH 04/18] x86/mtrr: Use symbolic define as a retval for disabled MTRRs

From: Toshi Kani <toshi.kani@...com>

mtrr_type_lookup() returns verbatim 0xFF when MTRRs are disabled. This
patch defines MTRR_TYPE_INVALID to clarify the meaning of this value,
and documents its usage.

Document the return values of the kernel virtual address mapping helpers
pud_set_huge(), pmd_set_huge, pud_clear_huge() and pmd_clear_huge().

There is no functional change in this patch.
