Subject: Please backport c2419b4a4727f67af2fc2cd68b0d878b75e781bb (xen: allow
 enable use of VGA console on dom0) in 3.0, 2.6.39, 2.6.38 and 2.6.37

The "xen: allow enable use of VGA console on dom0" has been pulled by Linus
in 3.1. I've forgotten to stick the CC: stable@...nel.org on the patch so
doing this by hand.

Please backport the upstream commit c2419b4a4727f67af2fc2cd68b0d878b75e781bb
in 3.0, 2.6.39, 2.6.38 and 2.6.37 trees. The older trees do not need it.

(I did the cherry-pick c2419b4a4727f67af2fc2cd68b0d878b75e781bb on those
trees and it worked out for me - but if you encounter any problems I will
be happy to send a rebased patch).

Thank you!

    xen: allow enable use of VGA console on dom0
    
    Get the information about the VGA console hardware from Xen, and put
    it into the form the bootloader normally generates, so that the rest
    of the kernel can deal with VGA as usual.
    
    [ Impact: make VGA console work in dom0 ]
    
    Signed-off-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy.fitzhardinge@...rix.com>
    [v1: Rebased on 2.6.39]
    [v2: Removed incorrect comments and fixed compile warnings]
