If there's no VSA2 (ie, if we're using tinybios or OpenFirmware), use the
GLIU's P2D Range Offset Descriptor to determine how much memory we have
available for the framebuffer.

Originally based on a patch by Jordan Crouse.  Tested with OpenFirmware;
Pascal informs me that tinybios has a stub that fills in P2D_RO0.
