    x86/HVM: drop stdvga's "stdvga" struct member
    
    Two of its consumers are dead (in compile-time constant conditionals)
    and the only remaining ones are merely controlling debug logging. Hence
    the field is now pointless to set, which in particular allows to get rid
    of the questionable conditional from which the field's value was
    established (afaict 551ceee97513 ["x86, hvm: stdvga cache always on"]
    had dropped too much of the earlier extra check that was there, and
    quite likely further checks were missing).
