I had the frame buffer at 16mb before the end of the ram to allow
u-boot, heap etc to relocated itself into the end of the frame buffer
/ ram. Without the CONFIG_FB_ADDR, the frame buffer it is located
at 1mb before the end and u-boot relocates itself before it. So now
linux has 15mb more since the framebuffer is at the 1mb before the
end of ram and not 16mb as it used to be.
