[PATCH] Do not require console control protocol.

[Johan Rydberg]

Hi,

I would like to have the following patch committed.  Some EFI
implementations do not provide a console control protocol instance,
and it is covered by neither EFI or UEFI specifications.

        * kern/efi/efi.c (grub_efi_set_text_mode): Assume console already
        is in text mode if there is no console control protocol instance
        available.
