[PATCH] efi: avoid error message when booting under Xen
Posted by Juergen Gross 3 years, 10 months ago 
efifb_probe() will issue an error message in case the kernel is booted
as Xen dom0 from UEFI as EFI_MEMMAP won't be set in this case. Avoid
that message by calling efi_mem_desc_lookup() only if EFI_PARAVIRT
isn't set.

In case I see no reaction from the maintainer for another week I'll take
this patch through the Xen tree.

From fbdev POV this change looks fine to me and I'm OK with merging it
through Xen or EFI tree:

Why not test for EFI_MEMMAP instead of EFI_BOOT?

Honestly I'm not sure EFI_BOOT is always set in that case. If you tell
me it is fine to just replace the test to check for EFI_MEMMAP I'm fine
to modify my patch.
