PATCH v2 1/4 vgaarb: Add support for setting the default video device

The default VGA device is a somewhat fluid concept on platforms with multiple GPUs. Add support for setting it so switching code can update things appropriately, and make sure that the sysfs code returns the right device if it's changed.

---
Updated to fix builds when __ARCH_HAS_VGA_DEFAULT_DEVICE is false.

PATCH v2 2/4 vga-switcheroo: Use vga_default_device()

vga-switcheroo currently changes the default VGA device by fiddling with the IORESOURCE_ROM_SHADOW flag on the device. This isn't strictly accurate, since there's no guarantee that switching also changes the ROM decoding. Switch over to using the vgaarb functions for this.

PATCH v2 3/4 x86: Use vga_default_device() when determining whether an fb is primary

In reply to Matthew Garrett

IORESOURCE_ROM_SHADOW is not necessarily an indication that the hardware is the primary device. Add support for using the vgaarb functions and fall back if nothing's set them.

PATCH v2 4/4 efifb: Implement vga_default_device()

In reply to Matthew Garrett

EFI doesn't typically make use of the legacy VGA ROM, but it may still be configured to pass that through to a given video device. This may lead to an inaccurate choice of default video device. Add support to efifb to pick out the correct active video device.

... on this patchset. I'd like to see it together though, so it's OK for me if Dave wants to take it, or I can take it.

Well, I was CCed so here's my Ack :-)

BTW. We should hack a version of vbetool that uses the arbiter interfaces ... not that I want vbetool to live but it's proved handy once or twice diagnosing problems...

Cheers,
Ben.
