Tetsuo Handa d88ca7e1a2 fbmem: pull fbcon_update_vcs() out of fb_set_var()
syzbot is reporting OOB read bug in vc_do_resize() [1] caused by memcpy()
based on outdated old_{rows,row_size} values, for resize_screen() can
recurse into vc_do_resize() which changes vc->vc_{cols,rows} that outdates
old_{rows,row_size} values which were saved before calling resize_screen().

Daniel Vetter explained that resize_screen() should not recurse into
fbcon_update_vcs() path due to FBINFO_MISC_USEREVENT being still set
when calling resize_screen().

Instead of masking FBINFO_MISC_USEREVENT before calling fbcon_update_vcs(),
we can remove FBINFO_MISC_USEREVENT by calling fbcon_update_vcs() only if
fb_set_var() returned 0. This change assumes that it is harmless to call
fbcon_update_vcs() when fb_set_var() returned 0 without reaching
fb_notifier_call_chain().

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
