x86, pat: New i/f for driver to request memtype for IO regions
Add new routines to request memtype for IO regions. This will currently be a backend for io_mapping_* routines. But, it can also be made available to drivers directly in future, in case it is needed. reserve interface reserves the memory, makes sure we have a compatible memory type available and keeps the identity map in sync when needed.
