Video mode probing support for the new x86 setup code
Video mode probing for the new x86 setup code. This code breaks down different drivers into modules. This code deliberately drops support for a lot of the vendor-specific mode probing present in the assembly version, since a lot of those probes have been found to be stale in current versions of those chips -- frequently, support for those modes have been dropped from recent video BIOSes due to space constraints, but the video BIOS signatures are still the same. However, additional drivers should be extremely straightforward to plug in, if desirable. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
