From: Haimin Zhang <tcs_kernel@tencent.com>

yres and vyres can be controlled by user mode parameters, and cause
p->vrows to become a negative value. While this value be passed to real_y
function, the ypos will be out of screen range.This is an out-of-bounds
write bug.
some driver will check xres and yres in fb_check_var callback,but some not
so we add a common check after that callback.
