Subject: [PATCH] EFI: suppress the "Welcome to GRUB!" message in EFI builds
b35c50
b35c50
Grub EFI builds are now often used in combination with flicker-free
b35c50
boot, but this breaks with upstream grub because the "Welcome to GRUB!"
b35c50
message will kick the EFI fb into text mode and show the msg,
b35c50
breaking the flicker-free experience.
b35c50
b35c50
EFI systems are so fast, that when the menu or the countdown are enabled
b35c50
the message will be immediately overwritten, so in these cases not
b35c50
printing the message does not matter.
b35c50
b35c50
And in case when the timeout_style is set to TIMEOUT_STYLE_HIDDEN,
b35c50
the user has asked grub to be quiet (for example to allow flickfree
b35c50
boot) annd thus the message should not be printed.
