[PATCH 2/2] vt_ioctl: change VT_RESIZEX ioctl to check for error return from vc_resize()

DORMANTno replies LANDED

From: George Kennedy <hidden>
Date: 2020-07-31 16:35:48
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: the rest, tty layer and serial drivers · Maintainers: Linus Torvalds, Greg Kroah-Hartman, Jiri Slaby

Landed in mainline as bc5269ca7650 on 2020-08-18.

vc_resize() can return with an error after failure. Change VT_RESIZEX ioctl
to save struct vc_data values that are modified and restore the original
values in case of error.
