[PATCH] Fix console blanking
Current console blanking code is broken. It will first do a normal blank,
then start the VESA blank timer if vesa_off_interval != 0, and then proceed
to do the VESA blanking directly. After the timer expires it will do the
VESA blanking a second time. Also the vesa_powerdown() function doesn't
allow all VESA modes to be used.
With this patch the behaviour is:
1. Blank: vesa_off_interval != 0 -> Do normal blank
vesa_off_interval == 0 -> Do VESA blank
2. Start the VESA blank timer if vesa_off_interval != 0 and
vesa_power_mode != 0.
It also gets rid of the limiting vesa_powerdown() function.
