/*
 * There are two ways of populating the core kernel's struct screen_info via the stub:
 * - using a configuration table, like below, which relies on the EFI init code
 *   to locate the table and copy the contents;
 * - by linking directly to the core kernel's copy of the global symbol.
 *
 * The latter is preferred because it makes the EFIFB earlycon available very
 * early, but it only works if the EFI stub is part of the core kernel image
 * itself. The zboot decompressor can only use the configuration table
 * approach.
