During the driver conversion to shmem, the start address for the scanout buffer was set to the base PCI address. In most cases it works because only the lower 24bits are used, and due to alignment it was almost always 0. But on some unlucky hardware, it's not the case, and some unitilized memory is displayed on the BMC. With shmem, the primary plane is always at offset 0 in GPU memory. Tested on a sr645 affected by this bug.
