This patch implements `.final` hooks for the IGD device to perform the
required operations before handing the control to the payload or OS.
The MBUS (Memory Bus) is a high-speed interface that connects the
graphics controller to the system memory. It provides a dedicated data
path for graphics data, which helps to improve graphics performance.
The MBUS is a key technology that helps to make the Intel i915 driver
powerful and versatile graphics drivers available. It provides the
high-speed data transfer capabilities that are essential for smooth
and responsive graphics performance.
Enable this config to ensure that the Intel GFX controller joins the
MBUS before the i915 driver is loaded. This is necessary to prevent
the i915 driver from re-initializing the display if the firmware has
already initialized it. Without this config, the i915 driver will
initialize the display to bring up the login screen although the
firmware has initialized the display using the GFX MMIO registers and
framebuffer.
Kernel graphics driver can avoid redundant display init by firmware,
which can optimize boot time by ~15ms-30ms.
Ensures hashing mode is 1x4 to enable a single pipe between Pipe A or B.
Typically, internal display is on Pipe-A, so 1x4 restricts MBUS joining
to internal display alone.
