Comment(by andreasf):
I've been able to simplify the main patch and promote it to proposed
status: The frame buffer is already identity-mapped (0x90000000, length
268435456; {{{address}}} 98008000), so no need to map it again. Remapping
it at the next {{{find_free_virtual_range}}} address (0x8022b000) results
in a {{{DEFAULT CATCH}}}.
Opening the {{{screen}}} device reinitializes the display, so we should
postpone that as far as possible.
Patch 7 is updated to reflect the latter. It could be applied as well but
has no real function currently (just passes the EDID into the kernel like
x86).
