This was leading to a strange behaviour when using the fbcon driver on
top of this one: the letter were in the right order, but each letter was
having a vertical symmetry.

This was because the addressing was right for the byte, but the
addressing of each individual bit was inverted.

I'd really like to see this patch merged into one of 3.8-rc's.

Is this ok for you?
