[PATCH] tty/vt: don't set font mappings on vc not supporting this

From: Imre Deak
Date: Thu Oct 02 2014 - 09:35:45 EST


We can call this function for a dummy console that doesn't support
setting the font mapping, which will result in a null ptr BUG. So check
for this case and return error for consoles w/o font mapping support.
