I think you should at least mention that the existing
fb_pgprotect() function is probably incorrect and should
be replaced with the generic version.

For reference, the fb_pgprotect function using pgprot_uncached()
was introduced in 2.6.22 along with all the other ones, but
the pgprot_writecombine function was only added in commit
4b050ba7a66c ("MIPS: pgtable.h: Implement the pgprot_writecombine
function for MIPS") for 3.18.
