mainlining shenanigans
90bfdeef83
Some of the font tty ioctl's always used the current foreground VC for their operations. Don't do that then. This fixes a data race on fg_console. Side note: both Michael Ellerman and Jiri Slaby point out that all these ioctls are deprecated, and should probably have been removed long ago, and everything seems to be using the KDFONTOP ioctl instead. In fact, Michael points out that it looks like busybox's loadfont program seems to have switched over to using KDFONTOP exactly _because_ of this bug (ahem.. 12 years ago ;-).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
