The problem with hiding behind a fake RGB frame buffer is you've then completely stuffed any framebuffer based apps that could use YUV happily (eg framebuffer video playback). Far better to make the kernel tell the truth in these cases. You'll need to add some tweaks to the fb code for it and a YUV boot penguin.[1] If you want to run X on it then you can use shadowfb on the X side to do your YUV/RGB adaptation.
