[PATCH] video: vgacon: disable vgacon on nios2

From: Tobias Klauser <tklauser@distanz.ch>
Date: 2016-11-28 12:48:50
Subsystem: console subsystem, framebuffer layer, the rest · Maintainers: Greg Kroah-Hartman, Helge Deller, Linus Torvalds

The allyesconfig/allmodconfig build currently fails on nios2 with the
following linker error:

drivers/built-in.o: In function `vgacon_switch':
vgacon.c:(.text+0x34750): undefined reference to `screen_info'
vgacon.c:(.text+0x34758): undefined reference to `screen_info'
drivers/built-in.o: In function `vgacon_resize':
vgacon.c:(.text+0x349b4): undefined reference to `screen_info'
vgacon.c:(.text+0x349b8): undefined reference to `screen_info'
drivers/built-in.o: In function `vgacon_save_screen':
vgacon.c:(.text+0x34ae8): undefined reference to `screen_info'
drivers/built-in.o:vgacon.c:(.text+0x34aec): more undefined references to `screen_info' follow

Since the nios2 architecture doesn't define the screen_info symbol.

Fix it by disabling VGA console for nios2.
