Title:
  [ppc64el] video is inverted on console after "error: no suitable video
  mode found." message in GRUB

Status in grub2 package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in grub2 source package in Trusty:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  The video is inverted on console after "error: no suitable video mode found." message in GRUB; while booting some ppc64el systems.

  [Test case]
  - Boot, exit to grub command-line.
  - Issue the 'clear' command.

  EXPECTED BEHAVIOR: screen should be cleared.
  ACTUAL BEHAVIOR: screen has colors inverted.

  [Regression potential]
  This may affect other grub scripts that expect specific behavior after a 'clear' command; namely that the text attribute is intact. It will now be reset.
