Add early console support for generic linear framebuffer devices.
This driver supports probing from cmdline early parameters
or from the device-tree using information in simple-framebuffer node.
The EFI functionality should be retained in whole.
The driver was disabled on ARM because of a bug in early_ioremap
We refer to functions like func().
implementation on ARM and on IA64 because of lack of early_memremap_prot.
Ditto.

Can it be placed after linux/* ones?

Easier to read the standard pattern:

    return -ENOMEM;

I would write it as

Too many parentheses.
