Subject: [PATCH 07/20] fbconsole: skip fb_flush when processing escape sequences
Date: Sun,  3 May 2026 10:33:09 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260503084430.2765761-8-a.fatoum@barebox.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260503084430.2765761-1-a.fatoum@barebox.org>

When processing escape sequences or multi-byte characters in future,
calling fb_flush for every single character is unnecessary.

Instead, just take note when the framebuffer is actually changed and
do the fb_flush lazily.
