[PATCH 1/4] gxfb: Replace FBSIZE config option with a kernelargument

[Andres Salomon]

Use a command line option (fbsize:) rather than hardcoding the vram size.
LxFB already does this; it's useful for machines that can't query the
BIOS for fb size.  This patch originated from David Woodhouse, was
modified by Jordan Crouse, and was then modified further by me.
