Seamless boot allows keeping the content on the framebuffer from pre-boot so the screen doesn't get "painted black" during boot process. Ideally the flow looks like: * UEFI F/W posts vendor logo * GRUB doesn't show anything, but silently continues * Plymouth starts and adds OS logo to bottom and spinner * Simple DRM loads, no mode changes * amdgpu loads, no mode changes * Spinner keeps spinning * GDM starts up Previously this was only enabled on Van Gogh, but this series enables the functionality more widely onto DCN3.0+. This also introduces a kernel module parameter that to easily force it enabled on other ASICs too, which may be useful to adjust policy.
