Description

Framebuffer console rotation can be applied during startup for devices with rotated screens. Users and administrators use this hook when early boot text should match tablet, kiosk, or unusual display orientation.

It is a console display hook, not a desktop rotation setting. Wrong rotation can make boot prompts harder to read until the main system starts.
