mb/asrock/b85m_pro4: Make VGA work on Linux
Currently, having libgfxinit try to enable VGA will result in a hang.
On the Asrock B85M Pro4, DDI E (VGA) was not being enabled in coreboot,
so it did not hang. However, this renders Linux's i915 driver unable to
use VGA at all. In absence of monitors with digital inputs, this is bad.
To work around this problem, mark DDI E as enabled, and comment out VGA
from gma-mainboard.ads for the time being. This allows one to use a VGA
monitor, even if it only works after Linux drivers have taken over.
