From: "Antonino A. Daplas" <adaplas@hotpop.com>
As we've discussed in another thread, below is a diff that will do a set_par()
as late as possible when there is KD_TEXT<->KD_GRAPHICS switch. The set_par()
will be forced in fbcon_resize() instead.
Not sure if this has repercussions with the other drivers, but this patch
fixed the X nv driver hanging when switching to the console. (I believe the
crash is actually caused by an early set_par() -- while in fbcon_blank.
Removing the set_par in fbcon_blank fixed the hang but caused cursor sprite
and display corruption).
