PATCH 6/7 nvidiafb: Ensure that CRTC registers are accessible

- Ensure that CRTC registers are accessible by unlocking them on set_par(), otherwise i2c reading will fail.

- The function nvidia_vga_protect(), does not protect the VGA registers, but turns off the screen. Rename it to nvidia_screen_off().
