util/x86/x86_page_tables: update PAT mapping to match linux
The linux kernel uses the following mapping for PAT entries:
PTE encoding:
PAT
|PCD
||PWT PAT
||| slot
000 0 WB : _PAGE_CACHE_MODE_WB
001 1 WC : _PAGE_CACHE_MODE_WC
010 2 UC-: _PAGE_CACHE_MODE_UC_MINUS
011 3 UC : _PAGE_CACHE_MODE_UC
100 4 WB : Reserved
101 5 WP : _PAGE_CACHE_MODE_WP
110 6 UC-: Reserved
111 7 WT : _PAGE_CACHE_MODE_WT
Update the page table generator to match what the linux kernel is
using. This just makes things consistent with linux.
