david at david-mb ~/dev/kernel/linux $ for i in drivers/gpu/drm/* ; do if
test -d "$i" ; then if ! grep -q USE_MTRR -r $i ; then echo $i ; fi ;
fi ; done
drivers/gpu/drm/exynos
drivers/gpu/drm/gma500
drivers/gpu/drm/i2c
drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau
drivers/gpu/drm/omapdrm
drivers/gpu/drm/qxl
drivers/gpu/drm/rcar-du
drivers/gpu/drm/shmobile
drivers/gpu/drm/tilcdc
drivers/gpu/drm/ttm
drivers/gpu/drm/udl
drivers/gpu/drm/vmwgfx
david at david-mb ~/dev/kernel/linux $

So for x86 gma500,nouveau,qxl,udl,vmwgfx don't set DRIVER_USE_MTRR.
But I cannot tell whether they break if we call arch_phys_wc_add/del,
anyway. At least nouveau seemed to work here, but it doesn't use AGP
or drm_bufs, I guess.

Cheers
David
