The kernel patch fixed the issue on the second (rightmost) stripe configuration.
This means we can set x_start more than 640.
Also, according to the chomiumOS implementation, it set
kAfMinGridBlockWidth to 3. So, it may align with chromium OS
implementation after the patch is merged to kernel release.
