This patch updates the i.MX video driver to store the
frame-buffer address in the fb_base field of the global
data structure *gd.

By doing this, you can find the frame buffer address
using the 'bdinfo' command:

	U-Boot > bdinfo
	arch_number = 0x00000EB9
	...
	FB base     = 0x4F35F1C0

This is very useful when debugging display connections.

I would add a new line after this. It looks ugly too close of the
comment and memset.

Apart from that, please add my Acked-by.

Oops. That's where my "#define DEBUG" lived...

This is the part that keeps me from thinking I can ever get
a patch V1 right...

Please add proper tags, otherwise patchwork cannot pick this automatically and 
you are only adding work onto others' shoulders .
