+Subject: [PATCH] Speed up console framebuffer imageblit function
+
+Especially on platforms with a slower CPU but a relatively high
+framebuffer fill bandwidth, like current ARM devices, the existing
+console monochrome imageblit function used to draw console text is
+suboptimal for common pixel depths such as 16bpp and 32bpp. The existing
+code is quite general and can deal with several pixel depths. By creating
+special case functions for 16bpp and 32bpp, by far the most common pixel
+formats used on modern systems, a significant speed-up is attained
+which can be readily felt on ARM-based devices like the Raspberry Pi
+and the Allwinner platform, but should help any platform using the
+fb layer.
+
+The special case functions allow constant folding, eliminating a number
+of instructions including divide operations, and allow the use of an
+unrolled loop, eliminating instructions with a variable shift size,
+reducing source memory access instructions, and eliminating excessive
+branching. These unrolled loops also allow much better code optimization
+by the C compiler. The code that selects which optimized variant is used
+is also simplified, eliminating integer divide instructions.
+
+The speed-up, measured by timing 'cat file.txt' in the console, varies
+between 40% and 70%, when testing on the Raspberry Pi and Allwinner
+ARM-based platforms, depending on font size and the pixel depth, with
+the greater benefit for 32bpp.
