So far this copying seems to be done case-by-case like calling
vidconsole_sync_copy() any time vidconsole does something, but the video
damage tracking series moves that to video_sync(), so this change is
incompatible with that (it will keep overwriting copy_fb with fb).

If you want a fix independent of that series, I think the proper
approach here is having EFI draw to fb as it already does, then copying
from that to copy_fb at the end of gop_blt_int().
