Because of commit e84de0c61905030a0fe66b7210b6f1bb7c3e1eab
[MIPS: GIO bus support for SGI IP22/28] newport con is now taking over
console from dummy con, therefore it's necessary to resize the VC to
the correct size to avoid crashes and garbage on console

I've applied your patch to master and the affected -stable branches of the
lmo git tree.

Florian, since this is a driver specific to certain MIPS platforms I'd like
to merge it through the MIPS tree with your ack, if that's ok?

Yes, sounds good to me. The patch looks good.


Best regards,
