[U-Boot] [PATCH v5 5/5] bcm2835 video: Map fb as cached

The bcm2835 frame buffer is in RAM, so we can easily map it as cached and gain
all the glorious performance boost that brings with it.

v2 -> v3:

  - Fix align parameters
  - Fix whitespace

v3 -> v4:

  - Align start of fb as well to align with segments
  - Align fb size on segment size, not page size

v4 -> v5:

  - Align fb start down, not up
