fbcon: logo: allow easy integration of a custom Linux boot logoT30_LinuxImageV2.0Beta1_20130314T20_LinuxImageV2.0_20130305T20_LinuxImageV2.0Beta2_20130129

This patch allows for easy integration of a custom Linux boot logo to
replace the Tux' being shown by default.

Use gimp or the like to create a raw PPM in your desired resolution.

Reduce the number of colours in the image to 224:

  user@host:~$ ppmquant 224 Toradex-640x480.ppm > \
    Toradex-640x480-224.ppm
  ppmquant: making histogram...
  ppmquant: 370 colors found
  ppmquant: choosing 224 colors...
  ppmquant: mapping image to new colors...

Convert it from raw PPM to ASCII format:

  user@host:~$ pnmnoraw Toradex-640x480-224.ppm > \
    Toradex-640x480-ascii-224.ppm

Copy it into the Linux sources:

  cp Toradex-640x480-ascii-224.ppm linux-toradex/drivers/video/logo/\
    logo_custom_clut224.ppm

Activate exclusively custom Linux logo in the kernel configuration:

  Device Drivers -> Graphics support -> Bootup logo ->
    Custom 224-color Linux logo

And re-compile the kernel.
