[poky] [PATCH] Remove uvesafb (v86d) from generic x86 features

When uvesafb is automatically loaded during boot and FW doesn't
support legacy video bios and frame buffer, its user space helper
will throw error messages in kernel log:

[6.843790] uvesafb: Getting VBE info block failed (eax=0x4f00, err=1)
[6.843864] uvesafb: vbe_init() failed with -22
[6.843916] uvesafb: probe of uvesafb.0 failed with error -22

Assuming most x86 boards today don't really rely on this module, this
change simply removes it from the common feature list to get rid of
these harmless messages.
