[PATCH] Fix KDFONTOP 32bit compatibility layer

[Samuel Thibault]

KDFONTOP(GET) currently fails with EIO when being run in a 32bit
userland with a 64bit kernel if the font width is not 8. This is because
the compatibility layer introduced by e9216651 forces the addition of
the KD_FONT_FLAG_OLD flag, which makes con_font_get return EIO in such
case.  This flag should *not* be set for KDFONTOP, since it's actually
the whole point of this flag (see comment in con_font_set for instance).
