Re: [U-Boot] [PATCH] video: mxc_ipuv3: fix memory alignment of framebuffer

Dear Eric Nelson,

The frame-buffer on i.MX boards needs to be aligned for DMA.

You might want to round-up the length too, like I did in the MXS driver.

fbi->fix.smem_start = (unsigned long)fbi->screen_base; if (fbi->screen_base == 0) { puts("Unable to allocate framebuffer memory\n");
