If anyone really wants to follow along, I've pushed up some commits
that boot to a working mouse, keyboard, and fb console using the DSL
image with CONFIG_VT, CONFIG_HW_CONSOLE, CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE
and the normal stdio stuff works iff CONFIG_VT is disabled (in case
you want the fb without it being a console). If not, the dummy console
will clobber.

The commits are not cleaned up or rationalized. I need to annotate
that the original work comes from vfb-*/Gerd's patches, as well as
keep cleaning up the code, and split out the commits so that they
aren't one patch-bomb.  I'd also like to get a basic virtual touch
input mode working too, but baby steps for now :)

cheers!
