Because it's better to access the global screen_info from
aperture_contain_firmware_fb_nonreloc()?  The reasoning here is not
super clear to me.

"how the determination ..."  (drop the "does")

Are you saying that aperture_contain_firmware_fb_nonreloc() might be
arch-dependent?  Are there multiple callers?  Or does this just move
code from one place to a more appropriate place?
