The PAT bit is in different locations for 4k and 2M/1G page table
entries.
Add a definition for _PAGE_LARGE_CACHE_MASK to represent the three
caching bits (PWT, PCD, PAT), similar to _PAGE_CACHE_MASK for 4k pages,
and use it in the definition of PMD_FLAGS_DEC_WP to get the correct PAT
index for write-protected pages.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
