Hints for Bananapi and -current

[Frank Kardel <kardel%netbsd.org@localhost>]

I tried -current with my Bananapi an had limited success:

Using the first steps copying the image armv7 and the 2018.05 u-boot I 
found the u-boot load attempting to perform a dhcp boot as nothing was 
found on the mmc drive in autoboot. Did I miss somethnig to set up there ?

I finally got a kernel to start booting with following chants:

mmc dev 0

fatload mmc 0:1 $fdt_addr_r $fdtfile

fatload mmc 0:1 82000000 netbsd-GENERIC.ub

bootm 82000000 - $fdt_addr_r root=ld0a console=fb/none

The output always stops at:

So in summary I seem to get up to video initialization. For my 4K TV I 
had to increase the MAX_FB reserved memory to 32M but that didn't help, 
also not connecting any HDMI device didn't help.

The u-boot bootm command was change to manage ramdisk images thus the 
tips on our web site don't apply to the new bootm syntax.

Any other things I can try or that I overlooked?
