memset uses rep stosb on x86 during boot, with memory
not set to write-combining, which makes it slow.
Instead we do aligned writes of 2 x four bytes at once.
Only clear the minimum of size and width * height * 4
UEFI framebuffer size can be huge, upto 512MB here,
and rep stosb seems to be around 25-30MB/s
This is written as generic as possible to work on
old compilers and different platforms, without
expecting boot memset to be optimized.
This makes it almost unnoticable compared to not
clearing.
Writes to videomem is slow without memory remapping
Can't do the mapping without leaving UEFI, so skipping
the clear. Afaict it should always be cleared by UEFI
This saves ~10 seconds of booting on my machine
(1920*1080*4 bytes)
EFI video mode (should have been it's own commit)
* Only do strcmp if there are enough params
* break when found
menu item it's associated with rather than an input string. This allows it
to calculate the position to start the input at, as well as the correct
line to place it on. The previous solution always put the input at the
center line, which happened to be the right place by happy coincidence
unless one also had the menu items for viewing/saving the debug syslog
present.
* Implement input buffer scrolling, and consequently lift the previous size
limit on user input (it is now only limited by the size of the passed in
buffer).
* Implement parsing of the input buffer to allow it to handle comma-separated
options. Thus, one can now input things like "disable_smp true, serial_debug_output false"
and it will be handled properly.

aren't otherwise exposed via the safe mode menus. The option can be
found under the debug options menu, where additional settings can be
added one at a time with the same syntax used in kernel settings files
(i.e. disable_acpi on).
Scrolling of the input buffer is not yet supported (will implement that
soon), so currently the input is clamped to the size of one line. This
shouldn't be a problem for our current set of options though.
