commit 9d69ef1838150c7d87afc1a87aa658c637217585 upstream.
Remove remove_conflicting_pci_framebuffers() and implement similar functionality in aperture_remove_conflicting_pci_device(), which was the only caller. Removes an otherwise unused interface and streamlines the aperture helper. No functional changes.

Hello,
this patch seems to disable console/framebuffer when vfio-pci is used. I hava 2 nvidia GPUs one is used for host and other is passed through to VM.
Vfio uses this helper to unload the driver before passing it to a VM AFAIU. But unless you're using nouveau, you're on your own.
Best regards Thomas
Now after this patch, when vfio-pci module is loaded with parameter ids=10de:2486,10de:228b, console is lost/frozen, last message is that vfio-pci module was loaded and then there is no more output. This PCI IDs (10de:2486,10de:228b) are for secondary GPU, primary/boot GPU is used for host and boot messages are displayed on primary/boot GPU.
Using dmesg I see this messages after vfio-pci is loaded:
[ 3.993601] VFIO - User Level meta-driver version: 0.3 [ 4.020239] Console: switching to colour dummy device 80x25 [ 4.020335] vfio-pci 0000:1a:00.0: vgaarb: changed VGA decodes: olddecodes=io+mem,decodes=none:owns=none [ 4.020722] vfio_pci: add [10de:2486[ffffffff:ffffffff]] class 0x000000/00000000 [ 4.116616] vfio_pci: add [10de:228b[ffffffff:ffffffff]] class 0x000000/00000000
I guess the problem here is "Console: switching to colour dummy device 80x25", but I don't know why this happens. Last working kernel is 6.0.3, after upgrading to 6.0.4 (and 6.0.5, 6.0.6), console is no longer working. By git bisecting it seems bad commit is af9ac541e88390d97b01d5e8c77309d2637c1d4c.
