[ Upstream commitc2999c281e] Since the following commit:38ac0287b7("fbdev/efifb: Honour UEFI memory map attributes when mapping the FB") efifb_probe() checks its memory range via efi_mem_desc_lookup(), and this leads to a spurious error message: EFI_MEMMAP is not enabled at every boot on KVM. This is quite annoying since the error message appears even if you set "quiet" boot option. Since this happens on legacy boot, which strangely enough exposes a EFI framebuffer via screen_info, let's double check that we are doing an EFI boot before attempting to access the EFI memory map.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
