Hi,
Now the ramfb will load the vgabios-ramfb.bin unconditionally, but only
the x86 need the vgabios-ramfb.bin, this can cause that when use the
release package on arm64 it can't find the vgabios-ramfb.bin.
Simpler to directly pass the ROM path instead of using a boolean,
so board (or CLI) could pass path to non-x86 rom.
The rom is loaded into a fw_cfg file which only seabios will look at.
So this rom logic is x86-specific.
edk2 ships an EFI driver for ramfb, that is how ramfb is used on !x86
platforms today, and I don't expect that to change.
Should we also set the vfio-pci::ramfb-romfile property to false in
a compat property for ARM machines then ? I don't know for RISC-V and
PPC.
C.
IMHO a bool is perfectly fine here, I don't think we will ever need the
flexibility to specify some other rom here.
