I though a general file would be better, because: a) the tag contains only generic stuff and it is parsed directly to screen_info, which is also generic b) ATAG_VIDEOTEXT, which is very similar to ATAG_VIDEOLFB, is parsed in setup.c also. c) it is not used anywhere currently So I don't see anything platform or board specific there. Or do you mean that there are broken bootloaders out there and this would mess up screen_info?
