Re: [RFC PATCH v2 01/13] bootsplash: Initial implementation showing black screen

This is the initial prototype for a lean Linux kernel bootsplash.

As it is now, it will show a black screen rather than a logo, and only if manually enabled via the kernel cmdline:

bootsplash.enable=1

Is it .enable or .enabled? (compare below)

•  This option enables the Linux bootsplash screen.
  

•  The bootsplash is a full-screen logo or animation indicating a
  

•  booting system. It replaces the classic scrolling text with a
  

•  graphical alternative, similar to other systems.
  

•  Since this is technically implemented as a hook on top of fbcon,
  

•  it can only work if the FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE is enabled and a
  

•  framebuffer driver is active. Thus, to get a text-free boot,
  

•  the system needs to boot with vesafb, efifb, or similar.
  

•  Once built into the kernel, the bootsplash needs to be enabled
  

•  with bootsplash.enabled=1 and a splash file needs to be supplied.
