[merged] vga-optimise-console-scrolling.patch removed from -mm tree

[akpm]

The patch titled
     Subject: vga: optimise console scrolling
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     vga-optimise-console-scrolling.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

------------------------------------------------------
From: Matthew Wilcox <mawilcox@microsoft.com>
Subject: vga: optimise console scrolling

Where possible, call memset16(), memmove() or memcpy() instead of using
open-coded loops.  I don't like the calling convention that uses a byte
count instead of a count of u16s, but it's a little late to change that.
Reduces code size of fbcon.o by almost 400 bytes on my laptop build.

[akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix build]
