I refreshed the first four patches that I sent before with very minor
updates, and then added some more to further disaggregate the use
of screen_info:

  - I found that powerpc wasn't using vga16fb any more

  - vgacon can be almost entirely separated from the global
    screen_info, except on x86

  - similarly, the EFI framebuffer initialization can be
    kept separate, except on x86.

Nice cleanup, Arnd!

You may add a

to the series.


I did extensive build testing on arm/arm64/x86 and the normal built bot
testing for the other architectures.

Which tree should this get merged through?

I suggest drm-misc or fbdev. Either is fine for me.

Since it applies cleanly onto git head, I can put it a few days into
the fbdev git tree to see if some builds break. Just let me know.
