No, that's what is causing issue to me. Can you try predefined address flow?
Just to highlight, I get UNDERFLOW during boot itself, immediately when it gets mapped to userspace.

Boot LOG:

Hmm that's interesting... So you have some tool that's ran early, which
draws something on the screen? Or maybe that's X starting?

Ah... I think I understand now. As I mentioned, AM4x has issues already.
I think the CPU/others can block DSS when accessing memory. So, if we
have bad caching for the mapped framebuffer, the CPU will use more
bandwidth when reading/writing to it, and that will cause DSS to underflow.
