Subject: drm/exynos: fbdev: Remove offset into screen_buffer
From: Thomas Zimmermann <tzimmermann@suse.de>
commit 760bbc58c2c833dec0ee38dd959f4f2f4084fc57 upstream.
The screen_buffer field in struct fb_info contains the kernel address
of the first byte of framebuffer memory. Do not add the display offset.
This offset only describes scrolling during scanout.
