Commit f8df13e0a9 ("tty: Clean console safely") added code to clear both the scrollback buffer and the screen with "\e[3J", then execution falls through into the code to simply clear the screen. This means scr_memsetw() and the console driver update callback is called twice on the whole screen buffer. Let's reorganize the code so the same work is not performed twice.
