[PATCH 09/11] video/aperture: Remove conflicting VGA devices, if any

On the primary graphics adapter, a driver might conflict with a VGA
driver that controls the VGA framebuffer I/O range. Remove the VGA
driver from the aperture helpers. Until now, this case has been
hendled by fbdev, but it should work even with fbdev disabled.
