[PATCH RFC 0/2] mm/x86/pat: Fix two possible issues

I'm recently looking at the possibility of mapping PCIe large bars to use
huge mappings (just like thp or hugetlb). Then I noticed these only when
reading the code.

I don't think I'm familiar enough with the whole PAT system, however I
figured I should post them out to collect some comments, hencing marking
this small series as RFC.

Please feel free to have a look at each of them; I've put more words in the
commit message than here, as the two issues are not related. Any comments
are welcomed.

Thanks,

Peter Xu (2):
mm/x86/pat: Only untrack the pfn range if unmap region
mm/x86/pat: Do proper PAT bit shift for large mappings
