As I explained in one of my previous email, it's not that easy to set
up, because the SRAM is connected to IF0, and we're using DMA memcpy
here. Also, I don't see how it could solve Peter's problem if, even
when he switches to LCDC master 9 for the primary overlay, he still
keeps experiencing FIFO underruns.

Except that only works if you have several overlays activated, which
AFAIR, is not the case in Peter's setup.
