The firmware running on the bcm2835 SoC's VideoCore CPU manages the
display controller. Add a simple "LCD" driver that communicates with the
firmware using the property mailbox protocol. This configures the
display and frame-buffer to match whatever physical resolution the
firmware chosen when booting, which is typically the native resolution
of the attached display device, presumably unless otherwise specified
in config.txt on the boot media.
Enable this driver in the Raspberry Pi board configuration.

There appears to be no implementation of flush_dcache_range() for
ARM1176, so explicitly disable dcache support to avoid references to
that function from the LCD core in the next patch. This was presumably
not noticed before simply because no drivers for the rpi_b were
attempting DMA.

The Raspberry Pi model B uses the BCM2835 SoC, has 256MB of RAM,
contains an SMSC 9512 USB LAN/Hub chip, and various IO connectors.
