[PATCH v2 2/2] drivers/firmware: consolidate EFI framebuffer setup for all arches

From: Javier Martinez Canillas
Date: Tue Jun 01 2021 - 11:00:36 EST


The register_gop_device() function registers an "efi-framebuffer" platform
device to match against the efifb driver, to have an early framebuffer for
EFI platforms.

But there is already support to do exactly the same by the Generic System
Framebuffers (sysfb) driver. This used to be only for X86 but it has been
moved to drivers/firmware and could be reused by other architectures.

Also, besides supporting registering an "efi-framebuffer", this driver can
register a "simple-framebuffer" allowing to use the siple{fb,drm} drivers
on non-X86 EFI platforms. For example, on aarch64 these drivers can only
be used with DT and doesn't have code to register a "simple-frambuffer"
platform device when booting with EFI.

For these reasons, let's remove the register_gop_device() duplicated code
and instead move the platform specific logic that's there to sysfb driver.

Signed-off-by: Javier Martinez Canillas <javierm@xxxxxxxxxx>
---

Changes in v2:
- Use "depends on" for the supported architectures instead of selecting it.
- Improve commit message to explain the benefits of reusing sysfb for !X86.
