I googled 'FBIOGET_FSCREENINFO smem_start' and came across info[1]
about the Mali blob using it and HiKey seems to have a Mali GPU:

00:17 <ssvb> BorgCuba:
the mali blob is supposed to open the framebuffer device,
get "smem_start" and try to map this memory via MALI_IOC_MEM_MAP_EXT ioctl

Could this be the problem here?

Noralf.
