[PATCH 4/5] fbdev/platinumfb: Use FB blanking constants

Fbdev and its drivers use FB_BLANK constants for controlling the
display's blanking state. Semantics differ to similar VESA blanking
constants.
Replace the VESA constants with FB_BLANK in platinumfb. The VESA
constants can be interpreted bitwise, while the FB_BLANK constants
can not. Therefore turn the bit tests in an if-else sequence that
handles the individual cases. By default, the display is unblanked.
The modified code is within a comment block, so it will not run. I
still changed it to keep the driver up to standard. This might also
resolve the nearby TODO comment on incorrect hardware blanking.
