fbcon can call fb_set_logo after boot

It would appear that the first time fbcon fbcon_takeover()'s a
framebuffer, it displays the logo on that buffer. The problem is, the
logo data is __initdata, and the first framebuffer might be from a
module loaded after the kernel frees __init stuff.

I believe this has only oops'ed on me once thusfar in the dozens of
times I've loaded the driver I'm working on, but it should probably be
fixed. I'd do it myself, but I don't yet grok the fbcon code enough to
see the best fix...
