Some standard resolutions like 1366x768 do not work properly with i.MX6 SoCs, since the horizontal resolution needs to be aligned to 8 pixels (so 1360x768 or 1368x768 would work). This patch allocates framebuffers allocated to 8 pixels. The extra time required to send the extra pixels are removed from the blank time. In order to expose the correct display size to userspace, the stride is increased without increasing the width. Without this patch systems with this display resolution hang indefinitely during boot up.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
