+ qemu: Support boot display for GPU mediated devices
+
+
+ Until now, GPU mediated devices generally did not show any output
+ until the guest OS had initialized the vGPU. By specifying the
+ ramfb
attribute, QEMU can be configured to use ramfb as
+ a boot display for the device: this allows for display of firmware
+ messages, boot loader menu, and other output before the guest OS has
+ initialized the vGPU.
