v4 largely has some re-basing changes compared to v3, plus one new patch.
I have to admit that I find it particularly sad that the enhancement done
by patch 1 has not made 4.16. This series had been submitted well in time.

1: make "vga=current" work with graphics modes
2: obtain video info from boot loader
3: EFI: retrieve EDID
4: simplify mode_table
5: fold branches in video handling code
6: fold/replace moves in video handling code
7: LEA -> MOV in video handling code
8: fold two MOVs into an ADD
