powerpc/5121: shared DIU framebuffer support

Browse source 
MPC5121 DIU configuration/setup as initialized by the boot
loader currently will get lost while booting Linux. As a
result displaying the boot splash is not possible through
the boot process.

To prevent this we reserve configured DIU frame buffer
address range while booting and preserve AOI descriptor
and gamma table so that DIU continues displaying through
the whole boot process. On first open from user space
DIU frame buffer driver releases the reserved frame
buffer area and continues to operate as usual.
