So when it went mainline I was very happy.

I don't think so.
My guess would be that your screen somehow read raw '0x00' on link while the
board resets. If your display is configured in YUV mode, you would see a green
screen. 0,0,0 is green in YUV

If you were using RGB instead YUV, I suspect you would have a black screen,
which is sad compared to 'funky green' but it is matter of taste I suppose.
