[PATCH 02/10] vt: Implement helpers for struct vc_font in source file
Posted by Thomas Zimmermann 6 days, 2 hours ago
Move the helpers vc_font_pitch() and vc_font_size() from the VT
header file into source file. They are not called very often, so
there's no benefit in keeping them in the headers. Also avoids
including <liux/math.h> from the header.
