[U-Boot] [PATCH] video: mxc_ipuv3_fb: stash frame buffer pointer in global data.

This patch updates the i.MX video driver to store the frame-buffer address in the fb_base field of the global data structure *gd.
By doing this, you can find the frame buffer address using the 'bdinfo' command:
U-Boot > bdinfo arch_number = 0x00000EB9 ... FB base = 0x4F35F1C0
This is very useful when debugging display connections.

I would add a new line after this. It looks ugly too close of the comment and memset.

This is the part that keeps me from thinking I can ever get a patch V1 right...

Will do in V2.

Please add proper tags, otherwise patchwork cannot pick this automatically and you are only adding work onto others' shoulders .
