Because there's no changelog, I have to read the patch to figure out what
it's doing since the title isn't that helpful either. Please provide a
description of what problem you're trying to fix or what improvement
you're trying to make so it's clear.

Nack, this isn't helpful since SRAT is only for x86 and other
architectures use this code. It would break the build on ia64 since it's
obviously not going to have a function called srat_disabled().
And -EACCES would not be the appropriate return value, this has nothing to
do with permissions.
