Álvaro Fernández Rojas 8c405cdccc bcm27xx: add 6.6 kernel patches
The patches were generated from the RPi repo with the following command:
git format-patch v6.6.34..rpi-6.1.y

Some patches needed rebasing and, as usual, the applied and reverted, wireless
drivers, Github workflows, READMEs and defconfigs patches were removed.

Subject: [PATCH 0211/1085] video: bcm2708_fb: Disable FB if no displays found
If the firmware hasn't detected a display, the driver would assume
one display was available, but because it had failed to retrieve the
display size it would try to allocate a zero-sized buffer.
Avoid the allocation failure by bailing out early if no display is
found.
