    mtrr: only add prefetchable resources as WRCOMB for VGA devices
    
    Be more conservative and only add VGA devices' prefetchable
    resources as write-combining in the address space. Previously
    all prefetchable memory was added as a write-combining memory
    type. Some hardware incorrectly advertises its BAR as
    prefetchable when it shouldn't be.
    
    A new memranges_add_resources_filter() function is added
    to provide additional filtering on device and resource.
