x86/cpu: Use enums for TLB descriptor types
The leaf 0x2 one-byte TLB descriptor types: TLB_INST_4K TLB_INST_4M TLB_INST_2M_4M ... are just discriminators to be used within the intel_tlb_table[] mapping. Their specific values are irrelevant. Use enums for such types. Make the enum packed and static assert that its values remain within a single byte so that the intel_tlb_table[] size do not go out of hand. Use a __CHECKER__ guard for the static_assert(sizeof(enum) == 1) line as sparse ignores the __packed annotation on enums. This is similar to: fe3944fb ("fs: Move enum rw_hint into a new header file") for the core SCSI code. Signed-off-by:Ahmed S. Darwish <darwi@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by:
