The use of the final parameter is somewhat confusing and should probably 
be 0. It's the number of bits per pixel. 32 is the default. But the 
preferred way of selecting color mode is via 
dev->mode_config.preferred_depth, which is the color depth (24!). So 
maybe rather set preferred_depth to 24 and let the fbdev helper figure 
out the details.

Best regards
