Hi Paul,

I wanted a way to change the resolution with a kernel argument. But vga=
or video= didn't seem to have any effect.
My qemu change is admittedly a hack, and a better fix would be to add
video= support to the arm frame buffer support in the kernel.
fbset is usually omitted on an embedded system, and I was trying not to
add anything new to the rootfs.
