+ * Copies a cursor image from user space to the proper place in driver
+ * memory so that the hardware can display the cursor image.
+ *
+ * Cursor data is represented as a sequence of 'width' bits packed into bytes.
+ * That is, the first 8 bits are in the first byte, the second 8 bits in the
+ * second byte, and so on.  Therefore, the each row of the cursor is (width +
+ * 7) / 8 bytes of 'data'
+ *
+ * The DIU only supports cursors up to 32x32 (MAX_CURS).  We reject cursors
+ * larger than this, so we already know that 'width' <= 32.  Therefore, we can
+ * simplify our code by using a 32-bit big-endian integer ("line") to read in
+ * a single line of pixels, and only look at the top 'width' bits of that
+ * integer.
+ *
+ * This could result in an unaligned 32-bit read.  For example, if the cursor
+ * is 24x24, then the first three bytes of 'image' contain the pixel data for
+ * the top line of the cursor.  We do a 32-bit read of 'image', but we look
+ * only at the top 24 bits.  Then we increment 'image' by 3 bytes.  The next
+ * read is unaligned.  The only problem is that we might read past the end of
+ * 'image' by 1-3 bytes, but that should not cause any problems.
