V6 is a Linux thing as mxsfb_drv.c says:
/*
 * Starting at i.MX6 the hardware version register is gone, use the
 * i.MX family number as the version.
 */
MXSFB_V6,

I think it would be good to make the commit mesg independent from Linux.
You may say something like "i.MX6SX LCDIF is not compatible with
i.MX28 LCDIF from HW IP point of view like missing a/b/c registers".

Since this is a fix, worth a Fixes tag?
