4) draw only one logo even on multicores ... why must every core draw
a logo? Currently each core draws the logo, and on a system with more
than 4 cores, I think this looks not really good ...

I don't think each core draws a logo. They're all drawn from
fbcon_switch().

Hmm... I have here an imx6dl based system, and it draws two logos when
booting...

It draw one logo _for_ each cpu core, but each logo is not drawn _by_ each
cpu core.
