[9fans] aux/vga hsync/hblank confustion

[cinap_lenrek@felloff.net]

it seems to me that aux/vga uses shb/ehb (start/end horizontal blank) to
really mean shs/ehs (start/end horizontal sync)?

there are some vgadb entries that specify shs *smaller* than shb and the
edid parser does the following:

	m->x = ha;
	m->ht = ha+hb;
	m->shs = ha;				<- *WHAT*
	m->shb = ha+hso;			<- *WHAT*
	m->ehb = ha+hso+hspw;		<- *WHAT*
	m->ehs = ha+hb;				<- *WHAT*

where:

ha = horizontal active
hb = horizontal blanking
hso = horizontal sync pulse offset (relative to start of blank)
hspw = horisontal sync pulse width

the hardcoded vesa standard modes in vesadb.c seem to use the field
in the right way i think.

interestinly, shs and ehb are rarely given in vgadb and we default
to: shs = shb and ehs = ehb when omited, so this might explain why
stuff works at all.

so what is going on here?
