[PATCH 02/10] fblog: implement buffer management

From: David Herrmann
Date: Sat Jun 16 2012 - 18:07:34 EST


Each available framebuffer can have a different font and buffer size
inside of fblog. Therefore, we need to remember all the log messages that
are currently printed on screen. We save them as an array of lines which
can be rotated and traversed very fast.

This also implements a very trivial way of resizing the buffer but still
keeping the content. As there is no need to improve this for speed, we can
keep it this way.
