Changelog doesn't explain the reason for doing this, but it looks like
that becomes clearer in later patches.

hm, that's not terribly elegant. It's racy too, although it seems
unlikely that an arch will call pci_set_vga_state_arch() more than
once.
Still, a neater solution might be
int arch_pci_set_vga_state(...) __weak
{
return 0;
}
and then resolve it at linkage time?
