Sometimes the frame buffer is not a multiple of the cache line size.
Adjust the cache-flushing code to avoid cache warnings/errors in this
case.

With DM VESA driver on x86 boards, plat->base/size/align are all
zeroes and starting address passed to alloc_fb() happens to be 1MB
aligned, so this routine does not trigger any issue. On QEMU with
U-Boot as coreboot payload, the starting address is within 1MB
range (eg: 0x7fb0000), thus causes failure in video_post_bind().
Actually if plat->size is zero, it makes no sense to do anything
in this routine. Add such check there.

Provide a way for the video console driver to be selected. This is
controlled by the video driver's private data. This can be set up when the
driver is probed so that it is ready for the video_post_probe() method.
The font size is provided as well. The console driver may or may not support
this depending on its capability.

The existing 8x16 font is adequate for most purposes. It is small and fast.
However for boot screens where information must be presented to the user,
the console font is not ideal. Common requirements are larger and
better-looking fonts.
This console driver can use TrueType fonts built into U-Boot, and render
them at any size. This can be used in scripts to place text as needed on
the display.
This driver is not really designed to operate with the command line. Much
of U-Boot expects a fixed-width font. But to keep things working correctly,
rudimentary support for the console is provided. The main missing feature is
support for command-line editing.

The existing LCD/video interface suffers from conflating the bitmap display
with text output on that display. As a result the implementation is more
complex than it needs to me.
We can support multiple text console drivers. Create a separate uclass to
support this, with its own API.

U-Boot has separate code for LCDs and 'video' devices. Both now use a
very similar API thanks to earlier work by Nikita Kiryanov. With the driver-
model conversion we should unify these into a single uclass.
Unfortunately there are different features supported by each. This
implementation provides for a common set of features which should serve
most purposes. The intent is to support:
- bitmap devices with 8, 16 and 32 bits per pixel
- text console wih white on black or vice versa
- rotated text console
- bitmap display (BMP format)
More can be added as additional boards are ported over to use driver model
for video.
The name 'video' is chosen for the uclass since it is more generic than LCD.
Another option would be 'display' but that would introduce a third concept
to U-Boot which seems like the wrong approach.
The existing LCD and video init functions are not needed now, so this uclass
makes no attempt to implement them.
