Intel and GFXUMA: fix MTRR and use uma_resource()
Commit 2d42b340034ff005693482ef9ca34ce3e0f08371 changed the
variable MTRR setup and removed compensation of uma_memory_size in
the cacheable memory resources.
Since the cacheable region size was no longer divisible by a large
power of 2, like 256 MB, this caused excessive use of MTRRs.
As first symptoms, slow boot with grub and poor user response.
As a solution, register the actual top of low ram with ram_resource(),
and do not subtract the UMA/TSEG regions from it.
TSEG may require further work as the original did not appear exactly
right to begin with. To have UMA as un-cacheable, use uma_resource().
