Hm. I compressed all the image drawing functions into accel_putcs which is
used in many places. I then placed accel_putc() into fbcon_putc(). I could
have accel_putcs() called in fbcon_putc(). The advantage is smaller
amount of code. The offset is a big more overhead plus a function call.
What do people think here?
