I think your reg00 and reg02 are overlapping with your video mem region.
Your video memory starts at e0000000 which is 3584MB (if I am
calculating that right)
So reg00 starts at 3072MB and is 1024MB large so there is an overlap
reg02 starts a 0MB and is 4096MB so again an overlap

How much system memory is there in the machine?
I think you use that for what would be your reg02.

I think you need to resize your reg02 (the below will give you a 2GB
region):
echo "disable=2" >| /proc/mtrr
echo "base=0x0 size=0x80000000 type=write-back" >| /proc/mtrr

And then also enable a 256MB region
echo 'base=0xe0000000 size=0x10000000 type=write-combining'
>| /proc/mtrr

One other option that doesn't work / do anything for me is the kernel
option:
enable_mtrr_cleanup

I also don't think I had any issues with removing all regions first and
adding the reg0 and my write-combined region.

But that is commented out in the script since I didn't "need" to do it.
#for X in $(cat /proc/mtrr | cut -c 5 | sort
-rn)                                                                            
                            
#do                                                                             
                                                                         
#       echo "disable=$X"
