Will fix this.

Actually I only added _FSV to distinguish the newly added modes easily.
On second thoughts, I'm not sure if there are any userspace
applications that might depend on parsing the mode name, for maybe to
print the resolution. I think its better not to break any such
assumptions if they do exist by any chance. I think I'll just remove
_FSV from the mode name. We already set DRM_MODE_TYPE_DRIVER for
userspace to recognize these additional modes, so it shouldnt be a
problem.

Sure.

Yes, thanks for catching this. Will fix.
