x86: PAT use reserve free memtype in set_memory_uc
Use reserve_memtype and free_memtype interfaces in set_memory_uc/set_memory_wb interfaces to avoid aliasing. Usage model of set_memory_uc and set_memory_wb is for RAM memory and users will first call set_memory_uc and call set_memory_wb after use to reset the attribute.
