ARM: mxs_defconfig: Enable the framebuffer
[ Upstream commit b10ef5f2ddb3a5a22ac0936c8d91a50ac5e55e77 ]
Currently, when booting Linux on a imx28-evk board there is
no display activity.
Enable CONFIG_FB which is nowadays required for CONFIG_DRM_PANEL_LVDS,
CONFIG_DRM_PANEL_SIMPLE, CONFIG_DRM_PANEL_SEIKO_43WVF1G,
CONFIG_FB_MODE_HELPERS, CONFIG_BACKLIGHT_PWM, CONFIG_BACKLIGHT_GPIO,
CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE, CONFIG_LOGO, CONFIG_FONTS, CONFIG_FONT_8x8
and CONFIG_FONT_8x16.
Based on commit c54467482ffd ("ARM: imx_v6_v7_defconfig: enable fb").
Fixes: f611b1e7624c ("drm: Avoid circular dependencies for CONFIG_FB")
