This one nukes all framebuffers, which is a bit much. In reality
gma500 is igpu and never shipped with anything discrete, so there should
not be any difference.

This does not work. The comment just above the changed line explains why.
The device uses shared memory similar to other integrated Intel chips. The
console is somewhere in a 16 MiB range, which has been stolen by the BIOS
from main memory. There's only a 1 MiB memory range on the device to program
the device. Unless you want to refactor as described, this call has to cover
the whole memory for now.

Uh. So it's maybe not so pretty, but what if I just call both functions?

That's ways more ugly IMHO.

That way we get the vga handling through the pci one, and the "make sure
there's no fb left" through the other one. Plus comment of course.

Otherwise we'd need to somehow keep the vga stuff in the non-pci paths,
and that just feels all kinds of wrong to me.

With your patch applied, aperture_detach_devices() does all the work of removing. I'd add the following internal functions:

static void aperture_detach_head(bool is_primary)
{
	/*
	 * lengthy comment here
	 */
	if (is_primary)
		sysfb_disable()
}

static void aperture_detach_tail(bool remove_vga)
{
	if (remove_vga) {
		aperture_detach_devices(VGA_PHYS_)
		vga_remove_vgacon()
	}
}

And call both of them at the beginning/end of aperture_remove_conflicting_devices() and aperture_remove_conflicting_pci_devices().

You'd still need to primary argument to aperture_remove_conflicting_devices(), but there will be no code duplication with the aperture helpers and the purpose of each code fragment will be clearer.

Best regards
