[PATCH v3 5/9] vgacon: remove screen_info dependency

From: Arnd Bergmann
Date: Mon Oct 09 2023 - 17:21:01 EST


From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx>

The vga console driver is fairly self-contained, and only used by
architectures that explicitly initialize the screen_info settings.

Chance every instance that picks the vga console by setting conswitchp
to call a function instead, and pass a reference to the screen_info
there.
