	Hi,

I would like to hear your opinions about the patchset below.

The Cell Broadband Engine contains a 64-bit PowerPC core with 2 hardware
threads (called PPEs) and 8 Synergistic Processing Engines (called SPEs).
When booting Linux, 2 penguins logos are shown on the graphical console.

To emphasize the existence of the SPEs (which can be used under Linux), we
added a second row of (smaller) helper Penguin logos, one for each SPE.

Summaries:
[PATCH 1/6] fbdev: Avoid vertical overflow when making space for the logo
[PATCH 2/6] fbdev: fb_do_show_logo() updates
[PATCH 3/6] fbdev: extract fb_show_logo_line()
[PATCH 4/6] fbdev: Add fb_append_extra_logo()
[PATCH 5/6] fbdev: SPE helper penguin logo
[PATCH 6/6] Cell: Draw SPE helper penguin logos

Thanks for your comments!

Gr{oetje,eeting}s,
