Patch looks good, except ... does this compile? fbcon_update_vcs is
defined in fbcon.h, and that doesn't seem to be included here ...
Maybe what we want is an fb_set_var_ioctl in fbmem.c so that the fbcon
interaction is a bit better hidden (but that's a bikeshed, feel free
to ignore). Also I have no idea what trickery you need to compile-test
ps3fb, that's why I'm asking :-)
