video: da8xx-fb: configure FIFO threshold to reduce underflow errors

Patch works around the below silicon errata:
During LCDC initialization, there is the potential for a FIFO
underflow condition to occur. A FIFO underflow condition
occurs when the input FIFO is completely empty and the LCDC
raster controller logic that drives data to the output pins
attempts to fetch data from the FIFO. When a FIFO underflow
condition occurs, incorrect data will be driven out on the
LCDC data pins.

Software should poll the FUF bit field in the LCD_STAT register
to check if an error condition has occurred or service the
interrupt if FUF_EN is enabled when FUF occurs. If the FUF bit
field has been set to 1, this will indicate an underflow
condition has occurred and then the software should execute a
reset of the LCDC via the LPSC.

This problem may occur if the LCDC FIFO threshold size
(LCDDMA_CTRL[TH_FIFO_READY]) is left at its default value after
reset. Increasing the FIFO threshold size will reduce or
eliminate underflows. Setting the threshold size to 256 double
words or larger is recommended.

Above issue is described in section 2.1.3 of silicon errata
