The cfb generic code works wonderfully well on the EP7212 CPU/EPSON 1355
because the processor can do the math in 32-bits just fine, it just
needs to issue 16-bit reads and writes to the framebuffer memory.  Since
you had that nice FB{READ|WRITE} abstraction in there, it was easy to
make a small tweak to be able to use my own FB{READ|WRITE} routines that
break each (aligned) FB{READ|WRITE} into two 16-bit reads/writes.
That's all that has to happen.  I inlined the speical fb{read|write}
routines and got good code with decent performance.

What I'm hearing is that you woud prefer that I include my own routines
over the pre-processor hackery.  Be warned that it is mostly going to be
a cut-n-paste job -- even if I wrote the routines totally from scratch I
would handle 32-bits of pixel(s) at a time.

I shall plow forward ...
