Subject: [PATCH 1/6] efi: earlycon: Reduce number of references to global screen_info
Date: Fri, 21 Nov 2025 14:36:05 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251121135624.494768-2-tzimmermann@suse.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251121135624.494768-1-tzimmermann@suse.de>
Replace usage of global screen_info with local pointers. This will
later reduce churn when screen_info is being moved.
