x86: Disable large pages on CPUs with Atom erratum AAE44
x86: Disable large pages on CPUs with Atom erratum AAE44

Atom erratum AAE44/AAF40/AAG38/AAH41:

"If software clears the PS (page size) bit in a present PDE (page
directory entry), that will cause linear addresses mapped through this
PDE to use 4-KByte pages instead of using a large page after old TLB
entries are invalidated. Due to this erratum, if a code fetch uses
this PDE before the TLB entry for the large page is invalidated then
it may fetch from a different physical address than specified by
either the old large page translation or the new 4-KByte page
translation. This erratum may also cause speculative code fetches from
incorrect addresses."

Where as commit 211b3d03c7400f48a781977a50104c9d12f4e229 seems to
workaround errata AAH41 (mixed 4K TLBs) it reduces the window of
opportunity for the bug to occur and does not totally remove it.  This
patch disables mixed 4K/4MB page tables totally avoiding the page
splitting and not tripping this processor issue.

This is based on an original patch by Colin King.
