3.2-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Samuel Thibault <[email protected]> commit cbcb8346054073d000ecac324763372d6abd44ac upstream. KDFONTOP(GET) currently fails with EIO when being run in a 32bit userland with a 64bit kernel if the font width is not 8. This is because of the setting of the KD_FONT_FLAG_OLD flag, which makes con_font_get return EIO in such case. This flag should *not* be set for KDFONTOP, since it's actually the whole point of this flag (see comment in con_font_set for instance).
