To enable the virtual terminal layer with virtio-gpu, we need to provide the dummy console. This console is hidden behind CONFIG_IOMEM via the graphics support. Instead of fully enabling the graphic drivers lets just provide a Kconfig option for the dummy console.

Really?
You already have your own copy of HAS_IOMEM, which makes it hard for
people to track which one applies where.
