venkatesh.pallipadi@intel.com 58dab916df x86 PAT: remove CPA WARN_ON for zero pte
Impact: reduce scope of debug check - avoid warnings

The logic to find whether identity map exists or not using
high_memory or max_low_pfn_mapped/max_pfn_mapped are not complete
as the memory withing the range may not be mapped if there is a
unusable hole in e820.

Specifically, on my test system I started seeing these warnings with
tools like hwinfo, acpidump trying to map ACPI region.

We can add logic to check for this. But, there can also be other holes in
identity map when we have 1GB of aligned reserved space in e820.

This patch handles it by removing the WARN_ON and returning a specific
error value (EFAULT) to indicate that the address does not have any
identity mapping.

The code that tries to keep identity map in sync can ignore
this error, with other callers of cpa still getting error here.
