Subject[PATCH 2/2] fbcon: Prevent global-out-of-bounds read in fbcon_copy_font()
Date
fbcon_copy_font() is using a signed int, `con`, as an index into
`fb_display[MAX_NR_CONSOLES]`, without bounds checking. In
con_font_copy(), `con` is being silently casted from the unsigned
`op->height`.

Let con_font_copy() and fbcon_copy_font() pass `op->height` directly, and
add a range check in fbcon_copy_font(). Also, add a comment in
con_font_op() for less confusion, since ideally `op->height` should not be
used as a console index, as the field name suggests.

This patch depends on patch "console: Remove dummy con_font_op callback
implementations".
