[PATCH] x86: Relegate CONFIG_X86_PAT and CONFIG_MTRR to EMBEDDED

[Arjan van de Ven]

MTRR and PAT support (which got added to CPUs over 10 years ago) are no
longer really optional in that more and more things are depending on PAT
just working, including various drivers and newer versions of X.  (to not
even speak of MTRR)
Having this as a regular config option just no longer makes sense.

This patch relegates CONFIG_X86_PAT to the EMBEDDED category, in the hope to
eventually completely retire it.
