To be honest I'm not very sure.
Without those lines, on ia64 garbage remains on screen after
the initialization by guest firmware.
And 'git annotate' told me that the lines came from the following
change set.
But you eliminated them by patch 2/4. I don't know why you were able
to safely eliminate it.

I just supposed that it had been missed by cut and paset
because the local variable, ds, isn't eliminated.
Then what you want is something like the following, isn't it?
diff --git a/hw/vga.c b/hw/vga.c
