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.
