Title:
  Support for console rotation with fbcon in linux-image is  erroneously
  disabled

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress
Status in “linux” source package in Trusty:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: linux-image

  Hi!
  I would like to suggest the inclusion of console rotation with fbcon in the linux-image-2.6.24 package.
  The kernel option is CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE_ROTATION. It has _no_ effect on the system unless it is explicity turned on as a boot option or with "echo 1 >  /sys/class/graphics/fbcon/rotate_all".

  Pros:
  * console rotation support with fbcon

  Cons:
  * none

  Thank you!
  Alex.
