[RADEON]: Fix blanking return value.

If you'll recall, over a year ago, I pointed out that the current
Radeon driver erroneously returns -EINVAL for valid blanking codes,
here is a link to that thread:

	http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/1/28/6

No other driver does this, and it confuses the X server into thinking
that the device does not support blanking properly.

I looked again and there is simply no reason for the Radeon driver to
return -EINVAL for FB_BLANK_NORMAL.  It claims it wants to do this in
order to convince fbcon to blank in software, right here:

			if (fb_blank(info, blank))
				fbcon_generic_blank(vc, info, blank);

to software blank the screen.  But it only causes that to happen
in the FB_BLANK_NORMAL case.

That makes no sense because the Radeon code does this:

		val |= CRTC_DISPLAY_DIS;

in the FB_BLANK_NORMAL case so should be blanking the hardware, and
there is therefore no reason to SW blank by returning -EINVAL.
