Subject: [PATCH 3.13 124/140] parisc/sti_console: prefer Linux fonts over built-in ROM fonts

3.13-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Helge Deller <deller@....de>

commit 8a10bc9d27ceb084b0d8be621a033a475eb9fdfd upstream.

The built-in ROM fonts lack many necessary ASCII characters, which is
why it makes sens to prefer the Linux fonts instead if they are
available.  This makes consoles on STI graphics cards which are not
supported by the stifb driver (e.g. Visualize FXe) looks much nicer.
