If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Scot Doyle commit f235f664a8afabccf863a5dee4777d2d7b676fda upstream. Since commit 27a4c827c34ac4256a190cc9d24607f953c1c459 fbcon: use the cursor blink interval provided by vt a PPC64LE kernel fails to boot when fbcon_add_cursor_timer uses an uninitialized ops->cur_blink_jiffies. Prevent by initializing in fbcon_init before the call to info->fbops->fb_set_par.
