From: "Luis R. Rodriguez" <mcgrof@suse.com>

We are burrying direct access to MTRR code support on
x86 in order to take advantage of PAT. In the future we
also want to make the default behaviour of ioremap_nocache()
to use strong UC, use of mtrr_add() on those systems
would make write-combining void.

In order to help both enable us to later make strong
UC default and in order to phase out direct MTRR access
code port the driver over to arch_phys_wc_add() and
annotate that the device driver requires systems to
boot with PAT disabled, with the nopat kernel parameter.

This is a worthy comprmise given that the hardware is
really rare these days, and perhaps only some lost souls
in some third world country are expected to be using this
feature of the device driver.

Hmm... FB_IVTV is not hardware... it is framebuffer support for IVTV.
It is optional to use FB API for the video output port of this board,
instead of using V4L2 API.

I would say, instead, something like: 

	"In order to use this module, you will need to boot with PAT disabled
	  on x86 systems, using the nopat kernel parameter."

Errors are always negative. So: 
		return -EINVAL

Or, perhaps, -ENODEV.

That's not true. It is hardware: it drives the video output OSD which overlays
the video output. The reason it is optional is that it is hard to unload a
framebuffer module and most people don't need it.

So V4L2 drives the video output and ivtvfb drives the OSD overlay. So it is
not a case of 'instead of'.

I do agree with this change, but that's because this module is optional and
not for the reasons you mentioned above.
