[PATCH 08/10] fbcon: smart blitter usage for scrolling

[Antonino A. Daplas]

From: Krzysztof Helt <krzysztof.h1@wp.pl>

This patch replaces the current SCROLL_MOVE method with smarter
method using the same logic as the SCROLL_REDRAW method. This
brings these two methods much closer in performance and benefits
all framebuffers which uses the SCROLL_MOVE method.

[adaplas]
- remove unnecessary char attribute checking
- whitespace cleanups and 80-column line fixes
