    UBUNTU: SAUCE: vt -- maintain bootloader screen mode and content until vt 
switch
    
    Introduce a new VT mode KD_TRANSPARENT which endevours to leave the current
    content of the framebuffer untouched.  This allows the bootloader to insert
    a graphical splash and have the kernel maintain it until the OS splash
    can take over.  When we finally switch away (either through programs like
    plymouth or manually) the content is lost and the VT reverts to text mode.

Bug description:
  I'm on Ubuntu 20.04. After upgrading from linux 5.4.0-26-generic to
  5.4.0-31-generic I could not log in anymore. I was stuck in the
  display manager. Then I rebooted into the old kernel and sent these
  reports. I'm not sure if this is related but I can't put my display
  onto the correct resolution anymore.
