LCD driver trims whitespace

Hello,

I have a HP Visualize workstation with this fancy little LCD at the 
front controllable via /proc/pdc/lcd. The problem is that the 
responsible driver trims all trailing whitespace, which is quite 
annoying if you want to scroll some text. The attached trivial patch 
(against 2.6.20.1) removes this behaviour.

Regards,
Julian Stecklina
