x86: mtrr: add hole punching support
Some ranges would use less variable MTRRs if an UC area can be carved off the top of larger WB range. Implement this approach by doing 3 passes over each region in the addres space: 1. UC default type. Cover non-UC and non-WB regions with respectie type. Punch UC hole at upper end of larger WB regions with WB type. 2. UC default type. Cover non-UC regions with respective type. 3. WB default type. Cover non-WB regions with respective type. The hole at upper end of a region uses the same min alignment of 64MiB.
Below are results using a combination of options. The board this was tested on has 10 variable MTRRs at its disposal. It has 4GiB of RAM.
