[U-Boot] [PATCH 04/11] video: Implement continuous screen refresh for SmartLCD into mxsfb

The LCDIF interface doesn't give us any means to do continuous refresh
when driving a SmartLCD. To work this around, we produce a special
circular DMA descriptor, which only writes the HW_LCDIF_CTRL0 register
and sets the RUN bit.
