[PATCH] [RESEND] neofb: Fix pseudo_palette array overrun in neofb_setcolreg

["Antonino A. Daplas" <adaplas@gmail.com>]

The pseudo_palette has room for 16 entries only, but in truecolor mode, it
attempts to write 256.

This fixes the following regression/bug reported as follows:

Subject    : tty-related oops in latest kernel(s)
References : http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/5/27/104
Submitter  : Tero Roponen <teanropo@jyu.fi>
Status     : problem is being debugged

According to Tero, this is also reproducible with 2.6.21.3.
