If fb_blank is directly called by fbcon_blank, it might proceed into an unending
cycle...
fb_blank()->blank_event_notify->do_blank_screen()->fbcon_blank()->fb_blank()
...however, we do store the current blank state in ops->blank_state, so the above
is probably an imaginary problem.
I'll do the call to fb_blank() instead of info->fbops->fb_blank() instead.
(I'm still in the process of resyncing my tree and merging pending patches,
just came back from a break).
