Revert "fbdev: ignore VESA modes if framebuffer is disabled"

This reverts commit 464bdd33e9baad9806c7adbd8dfc37081a55f27e.

Peter Anvin correctly points out that VESA modes have nothing to do with
frame buffers per se - they are often just regular extended text modes.
Disabling them just because we don't have frame buffer support is very
wrong.
