x86 setup: push video mode setup as late as possible
Push video mode setup as late as possible; messages issued through the BIOS interface after video mode setup will either not be seen (for framebuffer modes) or will screw up the cursor (for text modes.) In particular, this makes the EDD probing message show up correctly. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
