[Impact]

* Google reports not being able to display graphic desktop environment.

[Fix]

* CONFIG_SYSFB_SIMPLEFB was initially enabled in https://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-kernel/ubuntu/+source/linux/+git/jammy/commit/?h=master-next&id=0bf2a2472f71a3001a8a9a0849b6bed7e7069a7b. It was subsequently disabled for amd64 in https://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-kernel/ubuntu/+source/linux/+git/jammy/commit/?h=master-next&id=40b0ce0833309133453c3dbc19753f62084c0a7a. This was not reflected in the GCP kernel config.

[Test Case]

* Compile tested
* Boot tested
* To be tested by Google

[Where things could go wrong]

* Low chance of regression. Simple config change that was not taken from generic.

[Other Info]

* SF #00366439
