Bug 289293: x11-drivers/xf86-video-mga: Ignore presence of kernel driver so it
will attach
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=289293



--- Description ---
The code checks if a kernel module is attached and if so refuses to run - this
would appear to be to avoid the KMS driver in Linux.

However on FreeBSD this call is true because the vga device attaches to it, and
we don't have KMS for MGA so just nix the test.

Tested on a Supermicro X9SCL-F with mgag200 eW Nuvoton.
