Subject: [PATCH 06/13] lib/fonts: Remove FNTCHARCNT()
Date: Wed, 18 Feb 2026 09:15:57 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260218083855.10743-7-tzimmermann@suse.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260218083855.10743-1-tzimmermann@suse.de>
The character count in the font data is unused. The internal fonts also
do not set it. Remove FNTCHARCNT().
