[PATCH 4.9 39/70] video: fbdev: fix OOB read in vga_8planes_imageblit()

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

From: Tetsuo Handa <penguin-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit bd018a6a75cebb511bb55a0e7690024be975fe93 upstream.

syzbot is reporting OOB read at vga_8planes_imageblit() [1], for
"cdat[y] >> 4" can become a negative value due to "const char *cdat".
