video/aperture: Only kick vgacon when the pdev is decoding vga
Otherwise it's a bit silly, and we might throw out the driver for the screen the user is actually looking at. I haven't found a bug report for this case yet, but we did get bug reports for the analog case where we're throwing out the efifb driver. v2: Flip the check around to make it clear it's a special case for kicking out the vgacon driver only (Thomas) v4: - fixes to commit message - fix Daniel's S-o-b address v5: - add back an S-o-b tag with Daniel's Intel address Link: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=216303 Signed-off-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch> Signed-off-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Thomas Zimmermann <tzimmermann@suse.de> Cc: Thomas Zimmermann <tzimmermann@suse.de> Cc: Javier Martinez Canillas <javierm@redhat.com> Cc: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de> Cc: linux-fbdev@vger.kernel.org Reviewed-by: Javier Martinez Canillas <javierm@redhat.com> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20230406132109.32050-5-tzimmermann@suse.de
