Log Message:
Allthough this patch doesn't look that much it adds a few things that were
on the port-acorn32's TODO list for quite some time :

- when the serial console is selected, don't exclude the screen
alltogether; currently the keyboard is still not attached but that might be
a configuration problem in the GENERIC console or a failure to explicitly
connect to a wsmux. This needs further investigation.

- create a framework for the display memory writeback on vsync for
StrongARM processors since they don't have a write-trough cache. This is to
solve the lazy screen update that is very evident in single user mode on
these processors; the cache isn't flushed/written back that often and parts
of the screen can thus be resident in the cache but not written out to
memory yet.

- clean up some loose ends in the code.
