Next suspects would be:

 +cleanup-vc-array-access.patch
 +remove-console_macrosh.patch
 +merge-vt_struct-into-vc_data.patch
Make that:

+cleanup-vc-array-access.patch
+remove-console_macrosh.patch
+merge-vt_struct-into-vc_data.patch
+vgacon-fixes-to-help-font-restauration-in-x11.patch
It's something in this batch. Which is good, as I'd be a bit
disappointed if the "vt leakage" were somehow attributable to the fb
layer. More bisection after dinner.
Could you try the patch below. I cleaned up the logic a little in
redraw_screen() and the code below really wants to do a update_screen().
The old switch_screen(fg_console) behaved like update_screen(fg_console).
Probably does not matter as this particular code is never invoked during
framebuffer initialization (unless one uses fbcon=map:n option).
