[PATCH 2/3] vt_ioctl: Revert VT_RESIZEX parameter handling removal
From: Maciej W. Rozycki
Date: Wed May 12 2021 - 20:41:36 EST
Revert the removal of code handling extra VT_RESIZEX ioctl's parameters
beyond those that VT_RESIZE supports, fixing a functional regression
causing `svgatextmode' not to resize the VT anymore. As a consequence
of the reverted change when the video adapter is reprogrammed from the
original say 80x25 text mode using a 9x16 character cell (720x400 pixel
resolution) to say 80x37 text mode and the same character cell (720x592
pixel resolution), the VT geometry does not get updated and only upper
two thirds of the screen are used for the VT, and the lower part remains
blank. The proportions change according to text mode geometries chosen.
Revert the change verbatim then, bringing back previous VT resizing.
