video: Add helpers for decoding screen_info
The plain values as stored in struct screen_info need to be decoded before being used. Add helpers that decode the type of video output and the framebuffer I/O aperture. Old or non-x86 systems may not set the type of video directly, but only indicate the presence by storing 0x01 in orig_video_isVGA. The decoding logic in screen_info_video_type() takes this into account. It then follows similar code in vgacon's vgacon_startup() to detect the video type from the given values. A call to screen_info_resources() returns all known resources of the given screen_info. The resources' values have been taken from existing code in vgacon and vga16fb. These drivers can later be converted to use the new interfaces. v2: * return ssize_t from screen_info_resources() * don't call __screen_info_has_lfb() unnecessarily Signed-off-by: Thomas Zimmermann <tzimmermann@suse.de> Reviewed-by: Javier Martinez Canillas <javierm@redhat.com> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20240212090736.11464-2-tzimmermann@suse.de
