vt: drop old FONT ioctls
stable inclusion from stable-v5.10.127 commit 3acb7dc242ca25eb258493b513ef2f4b0f2a9ad1 category: bugfix bugzilla: 187166 https://gitee.com/src-openeuler/kernel/issues/I5GKVX CVE: CVE-2021-33656 Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?h=linux-5.10.y&id=3acb7dc242ca25eb258493b513ef2f4b0f2a9ad1 -------------------------------- commit ff2047fb upstream. Drop support for these ioctls: * PIO_FONT, PIO_FONTX * GIO_FONT, GIO_FONTX * PIO_FONTRESET As was demonstrated by commit 90bfdeef (tty: make FONTX ioctl use the tty pointer they were actually passed), these ioctls are not used from userspace, as: 1) they used to be broken (set up font on current console, not the open one) and racy (before the commit above) 2) KDFONTOP ioctl is used for years instead Note that PIO_FONTRESET is defunct on most systems as VGA_CONSOLE is set on them for ages. That turns on BROKEN_GRAPHICS_PROGRAMS which makes PIO_FONTRESET just return an error. We are removing KD_FONT_FLAG_OLD here as it was used only by these removed ioctls. kd.h header exists both in kernel and uapi headers, so we can remove the kernel one completely. Everyone includeing kd.h will now automatically get the uapi one. There are now unused definitions of the ioctl numbers and "struct consolefontdesc" in kd.h, but as it is a uapi header, I am not touching these.
