-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

From: Andrea Righi <righi.andrea@gmail.com>

upstream commit: 66c1ca019078220dc1bf968f2bb18421100ef147

Fix a circular locking dependency in the frame buffer console driver
pushing down the mutex fb_info->lock.

Circular locking dependecies occur calling the blocking
fb_notifier_call_chain() with fb_info->lock held. Notifier callbacks can
try to acquire mm->mmap_sem, while fb_mmap() acquires the locks in the
reverse order mm->mmap_sem => fb_info->lock.
