Use a command line option (vram) rather than hardcoding the vram size. LxFB
already does this; it's useful for machines that can't query the BIOS for fb
size. This patch originated from David Woodhouse, was modified by Jordan
Crouse, and was then modified further by me.
This also adds some gxfb documentation in Documentation/fb.

Drop the class/class_mask stuff; it's unnecessary as long as the vendor and

This cleans up a few MSR-using drivers in the following manner:
- Ensures MSRs are all defined in asm/geode.h, rather than in misc
places
- Makes the naming consistent; cs553[56] ones begin with MSR_,
GX-specific ones start with MSR_GX_, and LX-specific ones start
with MSR_LX_. Also, make the names match the data sheet.
- Use MSR names rather than numbers in source code
- Document the fact that the LX's MSR_PADSEL has the wrong value
in the data sheet. That's, uh, good to note.

We cannot assume that the BIOS will be correctly setting up the hardware, so
set some bits in various display registers to enable video output. Allow an
advanced user to specify a frambuffer size, rather then probing the BIOS. All
of these fixes were prompted by the OLPC effort.

Rename a poorly worded PCI ID for the Geode GX and CS5535 companion chips.
The graphics processor and host bridge actually live in the northbridge on
the integrated processor, not in the companion chip.

MAX_NR_CONSOLES, fg_console, want_console and last_console are more of a
function of the VT layer than the TTY one. Moving these to vt.h and vt_kern.h
allows all of the framebuffer and VT console drivers to remove their
dependency on tty.h.

Detaching fbcon allows individual drivers to be unloaded. However several
drivers call pci_disable_device() upon exit. This function will disable the
BAR's which will kill VGA text mode and/or affect X/DRM.
To prevent this, remove calls to pci_disable_device() from several drivers.

A framebuffer driver for the display controller in AMD Geode GX processors
(Geode GX533, Geode GX500 etc.). Tested at 640x480, 800x600, 1024x768 and
1280x1024 at 8, 16, and 24 bpp with both CRT and TFT. No accelerated features
currently implemented and compression remains disabled.
This driver requires that the BIOS (or the SoftVG/Firmbase code in the BIOS)
has created an appropriate virtual PCI header.
