Subject: vt: expose system-wide UTF-8 default setting via sysfs
From: "Antonino A. Daplas" <adaplas@xxxxxxxxx>
Create a variable, default_utf8, that defines the system-wide default UTF-8
setting. This variable can be altered via sysfs. If the variable is properly
set, this should mimimize breakage of UTF-8 encoded consoles when doing a
reset or echo -e '\033c' and of newly opened/allocated consoles.
This is based from patches by Jan Engelhardt and Paul LeoNerd Evans.
