Instead of only setting mode->specified on false on an early exit and

The reported error by kbuild rings a bell. I think I tried to do this,
saw that error, and then forgot about it.
Looking more at the code now, I don't see any in bochs that looks
really wrong. Either way, we should either fix bochs, or add a
unit-test to have a test for the bochs case so that we don't have that
issue sneaking around.
Ok, for those reading along, for some reason Red Hat's mails server
has eaten the kbuild report. in case this has happened to more people
we are talking about this report:

Maxime, looking at this closer, the bochs driver indeed does not do
anything wrong, my patch does. Instead of that I deleted the:
mode->specified = false;
line, I deleted the:
return false;
line instead, so the null-ptr deref is on the mode_option. No idea
why this is not crashing things everywhere, as I've run a kernel with
these patches, also without a video= option on several devices...
Anyways let me send out a v3 of the set with this patcch fixed and
thank you for the reviews.
Regards,
Hans
