    efifb: ignore frame buffer with invalid configuration
    
    On one of my boxes when the HDMI cable is not plugged in the
    FrameBufferBase of the EFI_GRAPHICS_OUTPUT_PROTOCOL_MODE structure is
    set to 0 by the firmware (while some of the other fields looking
    plausible).
    
    Such (bogus address) ends up mapped in vesa_init(), and since it
    overlaps with a RAM region the whole system goes down pretty badly,
    see:
    
    (XEN) vesafb: framebuffer at 0x0000000000000000, mapped to 
0xffff82c000201000, using 35209k, total 35209k
    (XEN) vesafb: mode is 0x37557x32, linelength=960, font 8x16
    (XEN) vesafb: Truecolor: size=8:8:8:8, shift=24:0:8:16
    (XEN) (XEN) (XEN) (XEN) (XEN) (XEN) (XEN) (XEN) �ERROR: Class:0; 
Subclass:0; Operation: 0
    ERROR: No ConOut
    ERROR: No ConIn
    
    Do like Linux and prevent using the EFI Frame Buffer if the base
    address is 0.  This is inline with the logic in Linuxes
    fb_base_is_valid() function at drivers/video/fbdev/efifb.c v6.0.9.
    
    See also Linux commit 133bb070e94ab41d750c6f2160c8843e46f11b78 for
    further reference.
    
    Also prevent using Frame Buffers that have a 0 height or width, as
    those are also invalid.
