swapping shadow screen data

[Geert Uytterhoeven]

Now all accesses to the shadow screen are done through scr_{read,write}w(), the
tests for conswitchp in include/asm-ppc/vga.h should be removed. Can someone
with both vgacon and fbcon in his/her kernel please verify that both vgacon and
fbcon keep on working?

Thx!
