At least for VX800 this initialization is not very good as some parts of
the register are written with reserved values. This makes the display go
white in some configurations and not usable until the framebuffer is
removed. It's better to not initialize it as it allows to use a
previously (by BIOS) correctly configured display.
This patch makes some displays work but might cause problems on others.
This is bad but can not be easily avoided. If this causes some
regressions it's probably the best to fix it in the 'active' display setup
code.

Remove unneeeded declarations from the header and makes it more
maintainable by evaluating the array size in the file the array exist in
and exporting it via variables. This removes the need to keep the array
size in the header in sync with the real array size.

Currently the start address is set to an initial value every time
viafb_setmode is called.
This is not done consistently along graphic cores and not even the whole
address but often only parts of it. On top of that it seems useless as
the real/final address will be set by viafb_set_start_addr a few lines
later.
Remove this superfluous initalization to shrink register initalization and
as a start to decouple primary and secondary display. Code cleanup, no
notable runtime change expected.

The current code initializes the register for CX700 chips 2 times due to a
missing break as discovered by Harald Welte.
As CX700 and VX800 have exactly the same register initialization we can
use one for both to avoid duplicated code.
As this is a pure code cleanup no measurable runtime effects are expected.
