Subject[RFC PATCH 2/2] fbcon: expose cursor blink interval via sysfs
The fbcon cursor, when set to blink, is hardcoded to toggle display state
five times per second. Expose this setting via
/sys/class/graphics/fbcon/cursor_blink_ms

Values written to the interface set the approximate time interval in
milliseconds between cursor toggles, from 1 to 32767. Since the interval
is stored internally as a number of jiffies, the millisecond value read
from the interface may not exactly match the entered value.

An outstanding blink timer is reset after a new value is entered.

If the cursor blink is disabled, either via the 'cursor_blink' boolean
setting or some other mechanism, the 'cursor_blink_ms' setting may still
be modified. The new value will be used if the blink is reactivated.

Tested with intelfb.
