Convert the driver from using the x86 specific MTRR code to
the architecture agnostic arch_phys_wc_add(). arch_phys_wc_add()
will avoid MTRR if write-combining is available, in order to
take advantage of that also ensure the ioremap'd area is requested
as write-combining.
There are a few motivations for this:
a) Take advantage of PAT when available
b) Help bury MTRR code away, MTRR is architecture specific and on
x86 its replaced by PAT
c) Help with the goal of eventually using _PAGE_CACHE_UC over
_PAGE_CACHE_UC_MINUS on x86 on ioremap_nocache() (see commit
de33c442e titled "x86 PAT: fix performance drop for glx,
use UC minus for ioremap(), ioremap_nocache() and
pci_mmap_page_range()")
The conversion done is expressed by the following Coccinelle
SmPL patch, it additionally required manual intervention to
address all the #ifdery and removal of redundant things which
arch_phys_wc_add() already addresses such as verbose message
about when MTRR fails and doing nothing when we didn't get
an MTRR.

Some of fb drivers uses atomic_t in bad manner, since there are still some
race-prone gaps. Use mutexes to protect open/close code sections with
ref_count testing and finally use simple uint.

There were two mistakes in the register-read-on-(un)blank approach.
- First, without proper register (un)locking the value read back will always
be zero, and this is what I missed entirely until just now. Due to this,
the logic could not be verified at all and I tried some bogus checks which
are completely stupid.
- Second, the LCD status bit will always be set to zero when the backlight
has been turned off. Reading the value back during unblank will disable the
LCD unconditionally, regardless of the state it is supposed to be in, since
we set it to zero beforehand.
So this is what we do now:
- create a new variable in struct neofb_par, and use that to determine
whether to read back registers (initialized to true)
- before actually blanking the screen, read back the register to sense any
possible change made through Fn key combo
- use proper neoUnlock() / neoLock() to actually read something
- every call to neofb_blank() determines if we read back next time: blanking
disables readback, unblanking (FB_BLANK_UNBLANK) enables it
This should give us a nice and clean state machine. Has been thoroughly
tested on a Dell Latitude CPiA / NM220 Chip docked to a C/Dock2 with attached
CRT in all possible combinations of LCD/CRT on/off. I changed the config via
Fn key, let the console blank, unblanked by keypress - works flawlessly.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
