[PATCH] vesafb: Disable mtrr as the default

Browse Source 
vesafb occassionally gets the size wrong when setting the mtrr.  When X or DRI
attempts to set the mtrr, it will fail due to range overlap significantly
affecting their performance.  Disable mtrr and let the user explicitly enable
it with the mtrr:n option.
