The firmware running on the bcm2835 SoC's VideoCore CPU manages the display controller. Add a simple "LCD" driver that communicates with the firmware using the property mailbox protocol. This configures the display and frame-buffer to match whatever physical resolution the firmware chosen when booting, which is typically the native resolution of the attached display device, presumably unless otherwise specified in config.txt on the boot media.
Enable this driver in the Raspberry Pi board configuration.
