Subject: vt: fix background color on line feed, DEC invert
From: Jan Engelhardt <jengelh@xxxxxxxxxx>
Original report: """I used to force my console to black-on-white by the
command `setterm -inversescreen on`. In 2.6.26-rc4, I get lots of black
background characters."""
Another addendum to commit c9e587ab. This was previously missed out since
I was not aware of what vc_decscnm was for.
