+Define CONFIG_FB_ADDR if you want to use specific address for frame buffer.
+Then system will reserve the frame buffer address to defined address instead of
+lcd_setmem (this function grab the memory for frame buffer by panel's size).
+
+Please see below code (in board_init_f function from arch/arm/lib/board.c)
+
+#ifdef CONFIG_FB_ADDR
+	gd->fb_base = CONFIG_FB_ADDR;
+#else
+ 	/* reserve memory for LCD display (always full pages) */

+
+If you want this config option then please define it at your board config file

+#define CONFIG_FB_ADDR		0x00000000
