Change subject: IntelFB: Add support for Intel font driver
......................................................................


Patch Set 3:

> The use of this library will be to display message on screen once display has been initialized. For example,
> 1. We can display firmware update message to user 

Not sure what this is supposed to mean.

> 2. We can also provide any BIOS setup option or display any information

BIOS setup in the sense of user interaction, definitely not (that's for the payloads). But I agree that some people might prefer an old-school, slow firmware that adds an artificial delay to display messages (or a splash screen). So I wouldn't reject this outright.

Though again, it would be much easier to see what you are eventually up to, to assess this patch.
