[PATCH] video/logo: prevent use of logos after they have been freed
From: Tomi Valkeinen

Hi,
The fbdev logo seems to be rather messed up when deferred probing is happening.
This is a quick fix for the problem.
The code in the logo.c is quite scary, using __init_refok to silence warnings
about accessing __initdata from non-init context.
Another option would be to make the logos not __initdata, but I think that's
not acceptable.
Any ideas for a nicer way to fix this issue?
Tomi
