Will do in V2, thanks.

There is one, about 10 lines further there is a 'switch (bpp) {}' statement. The 
default branch will trigger a fail.

I use CONFIG_VIDEO , not CONFIG_LCD here. My understanding is that CONFIG_VIDEO 
is what should be used and CONFIG_LCD is legacy. Please correct me if I'm wrong. 
Only the CONFIG_LCD will reserve the memory, CONFIG_VIDEO will not. It might be 
a good idea to explicitly set gd->fb_addr in the driver though. What do you 
think ?

Best regards,
