There are essentially two styles of configuration table used with PVR
graphics. One is basically the same as that used on 'real' Intel graphics
the other first introduced with one of the SoC devices is a firmware
table in a completely different format.

The netbook and PC oriented devices use the VBT, the tablet SoC
devices and embedded ones seem to vary and have a VBT/GCT in different
form that is found via config 0xFC on the chipset - see mid_bios.c
