Hi, my only intended goal [1] is to add a reserved-memory region (specific to the framebuffer memory reserved by the bootloader for the boot splash) in sdm45-db845c. But I have been told that reserving these 30+ MBs for every DB845c is a waste in case we are not using display at all (a headless system?). So I prepared this patch for RFC. The definition of headless is ambiguous to me as well. It could be no HDMI plugged in or no display drivers enabled at all. I believe it all comes down to specific use cases. As far as my use-case (vanilla AOSP) is concerned, display is a critical component and device doesn't boot to completion unless it is hooked to any kind of display. May I suggest we go back to my original change [1] of adding a reserved-memory region for now and let the users of a headless system, define or come up with their respective use-case?
