Otherwise check_timings fails and we get a "has no modes" message

This fix makes the venc assume PAL and NTSC timings that match the
timings synthetized by copy_timings_drm_to_omap() from omapdrm
mode settings so that check_timings() succeeds.

Tested on: BeagleBoard XM, GTA04 and OpenPandora

I've picked this up.

With this patch and the one below I can get tv-out working on my very old
beagleboard, and it seems to work with X also. It doesn't start automatically
as the connection state is unknown, but doing "xrandr --output None-1 --auto"
was all I needed to enable it.

Subject: [PATCH] drm/omap: fix fbdev pix format to support all platforms

omap_fbdev always creates a framebuffer with ARGB8888 pixel format. On
OMAP3 we have VIDEO1 overlay that does not support ARGB8888, and on
OMAP2 none of the overlays support ARGB888.

This patch changes the omap_fbdev's fb to XRGB8888, which is supported
by all platforms.
