[PATCH stable 4.14.y] vc_screen: reload load of struct vc_data pointer in vcs_write() to avoid UAF
From: Suraj Jitindar Singh

commit 8fb9ea65c9d1338b0d2bb0a9122dc942cdd32357 upstream.
After a call to console_unlock() in vcs_write() the vc_data struct can be
freed by vc_port_destruct(). Because of that, the struct vc_data pointer
must be reloaded in the while loop in vcs_write() after console_lock() to
avoid a UAF when vcs_size() is called.
Syzkaller reported a UAF in vcs_size().
