[PATCH] drm/radeon: Don't limit fb console on 32M cards to 8 bpp

The comment suggests that intention was to limit 16M cards to save memory while
code did something a bit different.

32bpp is a lot more useful with today's apps, such as Weston's fbdev backend
and 32M cards are probably hardly used in apps where dedicating a bit more to
pinned console would matter.
