We should drop it in favour of using simpledrm with fbdev emulation layer. This requires Kernel config changes: FB_EFI=n FB_VESA=n fbcon will still require FB to be available, but will use the fbdev emulation layer When this stack is enabled, it changes boot timing such that some drivers may take a longer time to boot and GDM may hang in a black screen. [ Test Plan ] * Ensure that a kernel with required kernel changes can boot to GDM using DRM driver (amdgpu, i915, or nouveau) [ Where Problems could occur ] * Race conditions could be exposed to DE environments * Software that expects to find DRM device at /dev/dri/card0 may have a problem. * Some older versions of NVIDIA driver might not work properly.
