[PATCH] x86/platform: adjust CONFIG_VIDEO usage
Posted by Jan Beulich 3 weeks, 3 days ago
Switch to using IS_ENABLED() in both places, thus in particular making
sure XENPF_get_dom0_console handling doesn't take the "default" path: The
behavior better wouldn't differ between VIDEO=y and there not being VGA vs
VIDEO=n. For this to work, fill_console_start_info() needs to be
unconditionally declared; extend that to vga_console_info as well.

I'm not quite certain whether to have Fixes: 11b4ff64841e ("x86/platform:
protect XENPF_get_dom0_console if CONFIG_VIDEO not set") here. Opinions?

That's up to you.  I doubt you're going to backport it, so it really
doesn't matter does it?
