For PCI video devices that are not mentioned in the devicetree, U-Boot does not bind a driver before relocation, since PCI is not fully probed at that point. Furthermore it is possible for the video device to be on a secondary bus which is not even scanned.
This is fine if the framebuffer is allocated in fixed memory, as it normally is on x86. But when using this as a copy framebuffer, we also need U-Boot to allocate its own cached framebuffer for working in. Since the video driver is never bound before relocation, the framebuffer size is never set and U-Boot does no allocation.
Add a new CONFIG option to reserve 16MB of memory for this eventuality. This allows vesa devices to use the copy framebuffer.
