Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] fbcon: expose cursor blink interval via sysfs
The fbcon cursor, when set to blink, is hardcoded to toggle display state
five times per second. Expose this setting via
/sys/class/graphics/fbcon/cursor_blink_ms
Values written to the interface set the approximate time interval in
milliseconds between cursor toggles, from 1 to 32767. Since the interval
is stored internally as a number of jiffies, the millisecond value read
from the interface may not exactly match the entered value.
An outstanding blink timer is reset after a new value is entered.
If the cursor blink is disabled, either via the 'cursor_blink' boolean
setting or some other mechanism, the 'cursor_blink_ms' setting may still
be modified. The new value will be used if the blink is reactivated.
Tested with intelfb.

v2: Use kstrtos16() instead of kstrtoul() and min_t(). Thanks Geert!
