    vesafb: Fix mtrr bugs
Thanks, Tony.
quoted
     1. Fix algorithm for finding the best power of 2 size with mtrr_add().
     2. Add option to choose the mtrr type by extending the mtrr boot option:

        mtrr:n where n

         0 = no mtrr (equivalent to using the nomtrr option)
         1 = uncachable
         2 = write back
         3 = write combining (default)
         4 = write through
Is an update to Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt or
Documentation/fb/vesafb.txt needed?
Yes. I'll submit a patch ASAP.

Tony
