I've reviewed this patch as follows:
- I determined that c137d95081690d4877fbeb5f1856972e84ac32f2 was indeed
the commit to revert at this point.
- I applied your series, on top of current master (@ 62ea70e31285),
using local branch name "yuchenlin_v2". Then I checked whether the state
just before c137d9508169 matched the state after this revert -- all
differences would have to be unrelated to the feature in question. My
command was:
git diff --color \
c137d95081690d4877fbeb5f1856972e84ac32f2^..yuchenlin_v2~3 -- \
OvmfPkg/QemuVideoDxe/ \
OvmfPkg/Include/IndustryStandard/
The differences are indeed orthogonal, so this looks like a valid revert.
In addition, the patch itself looks good, plus OVMF continues to build
fine after this patch (for bisectability's sake).
