From: Girish Pathak <girish.pathak at arm.com> Currently framebuffer memory is either reserved in special VRAM or dynamically allocated using boot services memory allocation functions. When allocated using boot services calls the memory has to be allocated as EfiBootServicesData. Unfortunately failures have been seen with this case. There is also an unfortunate lack of control on the placement of the framebuffer.
This change introduces two PCDs, PcdArmLcdFrameBufferBase and PcdArmLcdFrameBufferSize which enable build time reservation of the framebuffer, avoiding the need to allocate dynamically. This allows the framebuffer to appear as "I/O memory" outside of the normal RAM map, which is similar to the "VRAM" case. This change has no impact on current code, only enables the option of build time reservation of framebuffers.
