When built-in, the sis driver tries to detect the current display mode
from the global screen_info state. That state is only for architecture
and firmware code. Drivers should not use it directly as it's not
guaranteed to contain valid information.

Remove the mode-detection code from sis. Drivers that want to detect a
pre-set mode on probe should read the hardware registers directly.
