All consoles implement the new con_blank plus con_unblank. Remove

v3:
- keep con_blank's mode_switch parameter

Shouldn't the "v3:" stuff go below the --- line?

Force of habit. Putting the change log in the commit description is common for DRM patches.

I'll do better next time.


Series applied to fbdev git tree.
While at it, I dropped the v3: stuff lines, so no need to resend.

Thanks Helge.

Best regards
