Print the BAR with %pR and include the framebuffer region from
screen_info in the same format.


I do remember that you already told me to do this in V3, sorry for not replying to you at V3. Most of the time, what you tell me is right.But here, I think I need to explain. Because doing it that way will make the code line too long,and it will exceed 80 characters in the column if we print too much.
I believe that the vgaarb_info() at here is already the most compact and simplest form. Printing the BAR with %pR is not absolute necessary, because we can get the additional information by: $ lspci | grep VGA

$ dmesg | grep 05:00.0
$ dmesg | grep 0000:03:00.0
$ dmesg | grep PCI


Actually, I only add something that is absolute necessary.
Printing BAR with %pR and/or Printing the framebuffer region
is consider to only for *debugging* purpose.
