From 39fda6d9159461f04f74259919281baca7cb4393 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Gabe Black Date: Sat, 18 May 2013 23:06:47 -0700 Subject: exynos5250: Clear the framebuffer before making it uncacheable. If we clear the framebuffer and then flush it back to memory using cache operations, the writes are going to be full cachelines at a time. If we make it uncacheable first, the writes will be serialized writes of whatever sized chunks memset uses, probably 4 bytes or less.
