Hi Geert,
I'm about to merge this in 2.4. Do you have any objection ?
Thanks,
Willy

Subject: [PATCH] fbcon: incorrect use of "&&" instead of "&"
The use of "&&" in the following statement causes unexpected
cases to be matched since __SCROLL_YMASK = 0x0f :
switch (p->scrollmode && __SCROLL_YMASK)
case __SCROLL_YWRAP: ... /* 0x02 */
case __SCROLL_YPAN: ... /* 0x01 */
The YWRAP case can never be matched and the YPAN case may be
matched by mistake. Obvious fix is to replace && with &. This
bug is not present in 2.6.
