Now that we have everything in place to support ramfb, let's wire it up
by default in the ARM QEMU targets. That way, you can easily use a
graphical console by just passing -device ramfb to the QEMU command line.

[Alper: Rebase on bochs changes, add pre-reloc init, error handling]

Changes in v2:
- Rebase on "qemu: arm: Enable Bochs, console buffering, USB keyboard"
- Drop env changes from ARM (necessary but in prerequisite series)
- Drop imply VIDEO, SYS_CONSOLE_IN_ENV changes from ARM (in prereq.)
- Probe QFW in ARM QEMU board_early_init_f to bind ramfb pre-reloc
- Add IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_QFW) check and error handling to ARM QEMU

We should only present an error if the device is present but
failed...so if the user doesn't provide the flag, all should be well.
I don't understand what you mean by "user doesn't provide the flag". But
I assume this should ignore the error (unless what?) so that we can
continue to boot. Would that apply for board_early_init_r below as well?
I thought you said there was a qemu flag to enable ramfb? So add it to
the DT and then the device can (in its bind routine) decide not to be
bound by returning -ENODEV
Ah. I'm not used to calling them flags, especially those that have
values as in "-device ramfb". My mind jumped to DM_FLAG_PRE_RELOC /
bootph-some-ram.

But note that what this code tries to probe here is not the ramfb
device, it's the bus/parent of that. If this fails, we can't know if the
user specified "-device ramfb" or not.


You bring up a great point here. I don't think we should model the actual ramfb device as device tree (platform) device. It's 100% enumerable from QFW which means we should treat it as a dynamic entity that gets created by QFW instead of from device tree, just like USB or PCI devices.

And when you do that, everything should fall into place nicely: You don't need to dynamically modify device trees on boot, the DT you get from QEMU is sufficient to enumerate everything, etc etc.
