This series is to address various unrecoverable black screen
issues:  after mode set or during initial installation.  To work
around these issues, we have to be conservative about which
modes to make available.  This approach may potentially cause a
regression for advanced users who want higher-res modes at a lower
color format (bpp).

To prevent this regression, we introduced a new vmwgfx kernel
parameter.
