If an fbdev device has multiple screens, they are mirrored by default.
This patch aims to enable extended display for the tty, allowing 
horizontal or
vertical expansion to achieve a screen splicing effect in the tty terminal.

We won't merge that. The mirroring happens because we cannot easily say 
which display is the correct one. But the console is a necessity that we 
cannot not provide. Its code is already badly maintained and overly 
complicated for what it does. Therefore in the framebuffer console we 
want to reduce complexity, not add more.

If you want complex screen layouts, please implement a console in user 
space or use a compositor.

Best regards
Thomas
