FREEMAIL_ENVRCPT(0.00)[gmx.de] X-Spam-Flag: NO X-Spam-Score: -2.80 X-Spam-Level: Replace struct console_font with struct vc_font for the type of the vc_font field of struct vc_data. Struct console_font is UAPI, which prevents further changes. Hence a new data type is required. Struct console_font has a documented vertical pitch of 32 bytes. This is not the case after the font data has been loaded into the kernel. Changing the type of vc_font addresses this inconsistency. The font data is now declared as constant, as it might come from the kernel's read-only section. There's some fallout throughout the console code where non-const variables refer to it. Fix them. A later update will declare the font data to a dedicated data type.
