Subject: [PATCH v2 34/37] drm/sti: Add support for the nomodeset kernel parameter
Date:   Fri, 17 Dec 2021 01:37:49 +0100

According to disable Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt, this
parameter can be used to disable kernel modesetting.

DRM drivers will not perform display-mode changes or accelerated rendering
and only the system framebuffer will be available if it was set-up.

But only a few DRM drivers currently check for nomodeset, make this driver
to also support the command line parameter.
