x86: provide platform-devices for boot-framebuffers The current situation regarding boot-framebuffers (VGA, VESA/VBE, EFI) on x86 causes troubles when loading multiple fbdev drivers. The global "struct screen_info" does not provide any state-tracking about which drivers use the FBs. request_mem_region() theoretically works, but unfortunately vesafb/efifb ignore it due to quirks for broken boards. Avoid this by creating a platform framebuffer devices with a pointer to the "struct screen_info" as platform-data. Drivers can now create platform-drivers and the driver-core will refuse multiple drivers being active simultaneously. We keep the screen_info available for backwards-compatibility. Drivers can be converted in follow-up patches. Different devices are created for VGA/VESA/EFI FBs to allow multiple drivers to be loaded on distro kernels. We create: - "vesa-framebuffer" for VBE/VESA graphics FBs - "efi-framebuffer" for EFI FBs - "platform-framebuffer" for everything else This allows to load vesafb, efifb and others simultaneously and each picks up only the supported FB types. Apart from platform-framebuffer devices, this also introduces a compatibility option for "simple-framebuffer" drivers which recently got introduced for OF based systems. If CONFIG_X86_SYSFB is selected, we try to match the screen_info against a simple-framebuffer supported format. If we succeed, we create a "simple-framebuffer" device instead of a platform-framebuffer. This allows to reuse the simplefb.c driver across architectures and also to introduce a SimpleDRM driver. There is no need to have vesafb.c, efifb.c, simplefb.c and more just to have architecture specific quirks in their setup-routines. Instead, we now move the architecture specific quirks into x86-setup and provide a generic simple-framebuffer. For backwards-compatibility (if strange formats are used), we still allow vesafb/efifb to be loaded simultaneously and pick up all remaining devices.
