Javier Martinez Canillas e2ece45f94 video: vga16fb: Only probe for EGA and VGA 16 color graphic cards 
commit 0499f419b7 upstream.

The vga16fb framebuffer driver only supports Enhanced Graphics Adapter
(EGA) and Video Graphics Array (VGA) 16 color graphic cards.

But it doesn't check if the adapter is one of those or if a VGA16 mode
is used. This means that the driver will be probed even if a VESA BIOS
Extensions (VBE) or Graphics Output Protocol (GOP) interface is used.

This issue has been present for a long time but it was only exposed by
commit d391c58271 ("drivers/firmware: move x86 Generic System
Framebuffers support") since the platform device registration to match
the {vesa,efi}fb drivers is done later as a consequence of that change.

All non-x86 architectures though treat orig_video_isVGA as a boolean so
only do the supported video mode check for x86 and not for other arches.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
