[PATCH] atyfb: force 29MHz xtal on G3 PowerBooks

The atyfb does not work on my 233MHz PowerBook with Mach64 LP, when the
kernel is booted from firmware. aty_ld_pll_ct() returns 0x22 and xtal
remains at 14.31818. When booted from MacOS, aty_ld_pll_ct() returns 0x3c
and xtal is changed to 29.498928.
Google indicates that all 4 PowerBook models need the higher value.
