6.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Thomas Zimmermann tzimmermann@suse.de
commit 87cb4a612a89690b123e68f6602d9f6581b03597 upstream.
Framebuffer memory is allocated via vzalloc() from non-contiguous physical pages. The physical framebuffer start address is therefore meaningless. Do not set it.
The value is not used within the kernel and only exported to userspace on dedicated ARM configs. No functional change is expected.
v2: - refer to vzalloc() in commit message (Javier)
