tty: Disable default console blanking interval
BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/869017 Console blanking is not enabling DPMS power saving (thereby negating any power-saving benefit), and is simply turning the screen content blank. This means that any crash output is invisible which is unhelpful on a server (virtual or otherwise). Furthermore, CRT burn in concerns should no longer govern the default case. Affected users could always set consoleblank on the kernel command line.
