x86, pat: Sanity check remap_pfn_range for RAM region

Add sanity check for remap_pfn_range of RAM regions using
lookup_memtype(). Previously, we did not have anyway to get the type of
RAM memory regions as they were tracked using a single bit in
page_struct (WB, nonWB). Now we can get the actual type from page struct
(WB, WC, UC_MINUS) and make sure the requester gets that type.
