The arm64 port doesn't provide a screen_info struct for console support
which leads to a build failure with some configurations:
drivers/video/console/vgacon.c:820: undefined reference to `screen_info'
This patch adds an empty declaration of screen_info to fix the build
problem. Some additional runtime code is needed to actually make it
useful.
