I don't know which display you used, but I guess your right_margin (and
lower_margin) needs to be adjusted.
Ok, agree. But then you need to adjust all current users and have them
tested... Otherwise, of course, you can just adjust your platform panel
data to work with the current calculations, even though in principle your
patch seems to be doing the right thing (tm), according to the manual.
But if applied as is without fixing all the users, it can very well
break them...
Ok, I've just seen there are some model defines in mx3fb.c which would also
be affected.
I'll try to find all mx3fb users and fix their videomodes and repost a new
patch.
Uh, this seems next to impossible for me to handle it my own. I checked some 
users of the mx3fb but I cant say which ones will be affected and which ones 
not (e.g. without any hsync/vsync, on data enable).
I've not idea how to fix it then.
Well, you can, of course, adjust parameters for your platform to be able 
to run with this incorrect parameter definition...

Thanks
