[PATCH 5.8 247/255] fbmem: pull fbcon_update_vcs() out of fb_set_var()

[ Upstream commit d88ca7e1a27eb2df056bbf37ddef62e1c73d37ea ]

syzbot is reporting OOB read bug in vc_do_resize() [1] caused by memcpy()
based on outdated old_{rows,row_size} values, for resize_screen() can
recurse into vc_do_resize() which changes vc->vc_{cols,rows} that outdates
old_{rows,row_size} values which were saved before calling resize_screen().

Daniel Vetter explained that resize_screen() should not recurse into
fbcon_update_vcs() path due to FBINFO_MISC_USEREVENT being still set
when calling resize_screen().

Instead of masking FBINFO_MISC_USEREVENT before calling fbcon_update_vcs(),
we can remove FBINFO_MISC_USEREVENT by calling fbcon_update_vcs() only if
fb_set_var() returned 0. This change assumes that it is harmless to call
fbcon_update_vcs() when fb_set_var() returned 0 without reaching
fb_notifier_call_chain().
