x86/mm/mtrr: Use symbolic define as a retval for disabled MTRRs

mtrr_type_lookup() returns verbatim 0xFF when MTRRs are
disabled. This patch defines MTRR_TYPE_INVALID to clarify the
meaning of this value, and documents its usage.

Document the return values of the kernel virtual address mapping
helpers pud_set_huge(), pmd_set_huge, pud_clear_huge() and
pmd_clear_huge().

There is no functional change in this patch.
