vga_default_device really is supposed to cover all corners, at least
for x86. Additionally checking for rom shadowing should be redundant,
because the bios/fw only does that for the boot vga device.
If this turns out to be wrong, then most likely that's a special case
which should be added to the vgaarb code, not replicated all over.
Patch motived by changes to the aperture helpers, which also have this
open code in a bunch of places, and which are all removed in a
clean-up series. This function here is just for selecting the default
fbdev device for fbcon, but I figured for consistency it might be good
to throw this patch in on top.
Note that the shadow rom check predates vgaarb, which was only wired
up in 88674088d10c ("x86: Use vga_default_device() when determining
whether an fb is primary"). That patch doesn't explain why we still
fall back to the shadow rom check.
