2016-05-05x86/sysfb_efi: Fix valid BAR address range checkWang YanQing
The code for checking whether a BAR address range is valid will break out of the loop when a start address of 0x0 is encountered. This behaviour is wrong since by breaking out of the loop we may miss the BAR that describes the EFI frame buffer in a later iteration. Because of this bug I can't use video=efifb: boot parameter to get efifb on my new ThinkPad E550 for my old linux system hard disk with 3.10 kernel. In 3.10, efifb is the only choice due to DRM/I915 not supporting the GPU. This patch also add a trivial optimization to break out after we find the frame buffer address range without testing later BARs.

2016-04-28x86/efi/efifb: Move DMI based quirks handling out of generic codeArd Biesheuvel
The efifb quirks handling based on DMI identification of the platform is specific to x86, so move it to x86 arch code.

2013-08-02x86: sysfb: move EFI quirks from efifb to sysfbDavid Herrmann
The EFI FB quirks from efifb.c are useful for simple-framebuffer devices as well. Apply them by default so we can convert efifb.c to use efi-framebuffer platform devices.
