[PATCH 2/2] x86, ia64: Don't default to first video device

With commit 20cde694027e boot video device detection was moved from
efifb to x86 and ia64 pci/fixup.c.

For dual-GPU Apple computers above above change represents a regression
as code in efifb did forcefully override vga_default_device while the
merge did not (changed ordering of actions).

This stops setting default_vga_device when applying
IORESOURCE_ROM_SHADOW (only doing so for the detected boot GPU) and
updates logging of boot video device selection, in vgaarb which covers
VGA text-mode booting and first half of pci_fixup_video which covers
framebuffer mode (EFI, VESA).

By setting IORESOURCE_ROM_SHADOW only on effective boot GPU we also
corrects a longstanding complaint from intel driver as reported by
Andreas:
  > Does setting the ROM_SHADOW flag on (possibly) the wrong device
  > have any effect?
  Yes it does. Removing the line changes a long standing
    i915 0000:00:02.0: Invalid ROM contents
  into a
    i915 0000:00:02.0: BAR 6: can't assign [??? 0x00000000 flags
    0x20000000] (bogus alignment).
  The first is logged at KERN_ERR while the second is at KERN_INFO.

Must be applied to stable when upstream commit
20cde694027e7477cc532833e38ab9fcaa83fb64, which is marked for
stable, gets applied.

Can be applied without patch 1/2 from this series though dropped
#ifndefs will cause this patch not to apply cleanly.
