Description
Work done under #1378 has not been tested under that board.
Meaning that it is not expected that a flat framebuffer is passed through kexec.
Interesting enough, this board is 5.10.5 linux based for a while.
Seems like users of that board are ok not having no vga until kexec'ed OS is initializing kernel.
Unfortunately, my kgpe-d16 doesn't boot anymore, looping into coreboot raminit.
Someone else still using that board under Heads? (Tagging per #692 board owners)
