[PATCH v2] firmware/sysfb: Fix VESA format selection

From: Pierre Asselin
Date: Wed Apr 19 2023 - 00:49:03 EST


Some legacy BIOSes report no reserved bits in their 32-bit rgb mode,
breaking the calculation of bits_per_pixel in commit f35cd3fa7729
[firmware/sysfb: Fix EFI/VESA format selection]. However they report
lfb_depth correctly for those modes. Keep the computation but
set bits_per_pixel to lfb_depth if the latter is larger.

v2 fixes the warnings from a max3() macro with arguments of different
types; split the bits_per_pixel assignment to avoid uglyfing the code
with too many typecasts.
