approximately 30 lines of code (including the table and the binary search

I don't have a problem with it. It is a situation people find themselves
in and framebuffer consoles can handle CJK although PC text mode ones
can't do it well. It all comes down to a clean and small implementation.
All the CJK framebuffer consoles that handle CJK I've seen run in
userspace on top of the kernel framebuffer. Keeping a CJK font in the
kernel seems prohibitive regardless of the hardware.
Have you seen anything different?
