[RFC] UBUNTU: SAUCE: (no-up) Restore VT fonts on switch

[Leann Ogasawara]

Hi Stefan,

When opening the Oneiric repo, the following patch produces a build
failure due to the fact that it's still a consumer of the BKL:

    UBUNTU: SAUCE: (no-up) Restore VT fonts on switch
    
    Not all X drivers save and restore fonts on text VTs. Add code to the
    kernel to explicitly save and restore them on VT switches.

I'm inclined to just drop this patch completely from Oneiric given that
the patch is 3yrs old, marked as SAUCE: (no-up), and the state of X
drivers has improved since then.  We can always re-apply it should
someone scream.  I wanted to get your thoughts first?

Thanks,
Leann
