This is just to follow the register definitions of OpenRM - the actual
register name is `SCRATCH_GROUP_42`, but we are using it in a given
software context where its role is reporting the size of the
framebuffer.

We could just define `NV_USABLE_FB_SIZE_IN_MB`, but that wouldn't
reflect the hardware manuals properly.
