The Arm Juno board EDK2 port has provided an EFI GOP display via HDLCD0 for some time now, which works nicely as an early framebuffer. However, once the HDLCD driver probes and takes over the hardware, it should take over the logical framebuffer as well, otherwise the now-defunct GOP device hangs about and virtual console output inevitably disappears into the wrong place most of the time. We'll do this after binding the HDMI encoder, since that's the most likely thing to fail, and the EFI console is still better than nothing when that happens. However, the two HDLCD controllers on Juno are independent, and many users will still be using older firmware without any display support, so we'll only bother if we find that the HDLCD we're probing is already enabled. And if it is, then we'll also stop it, since otherwise the display can end up shifted if it's still scanning out while the rest of the registers are subsequently reconfigured.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
