Wut ... Maybe I'm missing something, but from how we use mtrr in other
gpu drivers it's a) either you use MTRR because that's all you got or
b) you use pat. Mixing both sounds like a pretty bad idea, since if
you need MTRR for performance (because you dont have PAT) then you
can't fix the wc with the PAT-based ioremap_uc. And if you have PAT,
then you don't really need an MTRR to get wc.

So I'd revert this patch from Luis and ...

... apply this one. Since the same reasoning should apply to anything
that's running on any cpu with PAT.
