hyperv_setup_vram tries to remove conflicting framebuffer based on
'screen_info'. As observed in past due to some bug or wrong setting
in grub, the 'screen_info' fields may not be set for Gen1, and in such
cases drm_aperture_remove_conflicting_framebuffers will not do anything
useful.
For Gen1 VMs, it should always be possible to get framebuffer
conflict removed using PCI device instead.

Using screen_info here seems wrong in any case. You want to remove the framebuffer devices that conflict with your driver, which might be unrelated to screen_info. AFAICT the correct solution would always retrieve the PCI device for removal (i.e., always do the else branch).

Best regard
