[PATCH] fbdev: mxsfb: implement FB_PRE_INIT_FB option

From: Martin Kepplinger
Date: Wed Feb 06 2019 - 05:15:10 EST


From: Melchior Franz <melchior.franz@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The FB_PRE_INIT_FB option keeps the kernel from reinitializing the display
and prevents flickering during the transition from a bootloader splash
screen to the kernel logo screen.

Make this option available for the mxsfb driver.
