[PATCH v2] fbcon: Silence fbcon logo on 'quiet' boots

[Prarit Bhargava <prarit@redhat.com>]

A variant of this patch has been in Fedora since at least 2010 and
AFAWCT there haven't been any complaints about the change in behavior.

https://src.fedoraproject.org/cgit/rpms/kernel.git/tree/silence-fbcon-logo.patch

P.

---8<---

On text-based systems the 'quiet' boot option will show printk levels
higher than CONSOLE_LOGLEVEL_QUIET.  The displaying of the Tux logo
during boot can cause some consoles to lose display data and as a result
confuse the end user.

Do not display the Tux logo on systems that are in 'quiet' boot.

v2: It helps to commit all my changes before sending them.  Remove extra
bracket.
