Dear maintainer,

Please enable CMA on riscv64.

  CONFIG_CMA=y
  CONFIG_DMA_CMA=y

This is required on SBCs (e.g. with JH7110 or TH1520) to allocate the 
framebuffer for normal HD displays at 1920x1080 or higher.
Without this, the display falls back to something like 1024×768 and typically 
stays black.

I am currently using `cma=128M` on the cmdline which works fine at 1920x1080.

Best
-Dominique

Thanks for the confirmation. I am therefore closing this bug with that 
version.
