[PATCH 3.17 266/319] tty/vt: dont set font mappings on vc not supporting this

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

3.17-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Imre Deak <imre.deak@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 9e326f78713a4421fe11afc2ddeac07698fac131 upstream.

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.
