<title>fbdev, newport_con: Move FONT_EXTRA_WORDS macros into linux/font.h</title>

drivers/video/console/newport_con.c is borrowing FONT_EXTRA_WORDS macros
from drivers/video/fbdev/core/fbcon.h. To keep things simple, move all
definitions into &lt;linux/font.h&gt;.

Since newport_con now uses four extra words, initialize the fourth word in
newport_set_font() properly.

<title>vgacon: remove software scrollback support</title>

<content type='text'>
Yunhai Zhang recently fixed a VGA software scrollback bug in commit
ebfdfeeae8c0 ("vgacon: Fix for missing check in scrollback handling"),
but that then made people look more closely at some of this code, and
there were more problems on the vgacon side, but also the fbcon software
scrollback.

We don't really have anybody who maintains this code - probably because
nobody actually _uses_ it any more.  Sure, people still use both VGA and
the framebuffer consoles, but they are no longer the main user
interfaces to the kernel, and haven't been for decades, so these kinds
of extra features end up bitrotting and not really being used.

So rather than try to maintain a likely unused set of code, I'll just
aggressively remove it, and see if anybody even notices.  Maybe there
are people who haven't jumped on the whole GUI badnwagon yet, and think
it's just a fad.  And maybe those people use the scrollback code.

If that turns out to be the case, we can resurrect this again, once
we've found the sucker^Wmaintainer for it who actually uses it.

vgacon_scrollback_update() always leaves enbough room in the scrollback
buffer for the next call, but if the console size changed that room
might not actually be enough, and so we need to re-check.

The check should be in the loop since vgacon_scrollback_cur-&gt;tail is
updated in the loop and count may be more than 1 when triggered by CSI M,
as Jiri's PoC:
#include &lt;stdio.h&gt;
#include &lt;stdlib.h&gt;
#include &lt;unistd.h&gt;
#include &lt;sys/types.h&gt;
#include &lt;sys/stat.h&gt;
#include &lt;sys/ioctl.h&gt;
#include &lt;fcntl.h&gt;

int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
        int fd = open("/dev/tty1", O_RDWR);
        unsigned short size[3] = {25, 200, 0};
        ioctl(fd, 0x5609, size); // VT_RESIZE

        write(fd, "\e[1;1H", 6);
        for (int i = 0; i &lt; 30; i++)
                write(fd, "\e[10M", 5);
}

It leads to various crashes as vgacon_scrollback_update writes out of
the buffer:
 BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffc900001752a0
 #PF: supervisor write access in kernel mode
 #PF: error_code(0x0002) - not-present page
 RIP: 0010:mutex_unlock+0x13/0x30
...
 Call Trace:
  n_tty_write+0x1a0/0x4d0
  tty_write+0x1a0/0x2e0

Or to KASAN reports:
BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in vgacon_scroll+0x57a/0x8ed

This fixes CVE-2020-14331.

Since commit 28bc24fc46f9 (vc: separate state), vc-&gt;vc_color is known as
vc-&gt;state.color. Somehow both me and 0-day bot missed this driver during
the conversion.

So fix the driver now.

We defined macros for all the magic constants in the previous patch. So
let us use the macro in the code now.

No functional change intended.

The code currently uses bitfields to store true-false values. Switch all
of that to bools. Apart from the cleanup, it saves 20B of code as many
shifts, ANDs, and ORs became simple movzb's.

Introduce names (en enum) for 0, 1, and 2 constants. We now have
VCI_HALF_BRIGHT, VCI_NORMAL, and VCI_BOLD instead.

Apart from the cleanup,
1) the enum allows for better type checking, and
2) this saves some code. No more fiddling with bits is needed in
   assembly now. (OTOH, the structure is larger.)

<content type='text'>
There are two copies of some members of struct vc_data. This is because
we need to save them and restore later. Move these memebers to a
separate structure called vc_state. So now instead of members like:
  vc_x, vc_y and vc_saved_x, vc_saved_y
we have
  state and saved_state (of type: struct vc_state)
containing
  state.x, state.y and saved_state.x, saved_state.y

This change:
* makes clear what is saved &amp; restored
* eases save &amp; restore by using memcpy (see save_cur and restore_cur)

Finally, we document the newly added struct vc_state using kernel-doc.
