[PATCH] hyperv-fb: kick off efifb early
From: Gerd Hoffmann
Date: Fri Feb 21 2014 - 09:39:44 EST
Remove firmware framebuffer before initializing hyperv-fb. Needed
on gen2 virtual machines. Letting register_framebuffer handle the
switchover results in efifb still being active while hyperv graphics
are initialized, which in turn can make the linux kernel hang.
