Currently the framebuffer console initializes one timer to flash the
cursor. In the timer function we call schedule_work. I like to support
more than one cursor, one for each framebuffer. Now the question is which
is better to do?

1) To use one timer and go threw all the framebuffer devices pushing data
threw schedule_work for each one.

2) Create a seperate timer for each framebuffer.
