Subject: fbmem: add margin check to fb_check_caps()

From: George Kennedy <george.kennedy@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit a49145acfb975d921464b84fe00279f99827d816 upstream.

A fb_ioctl() FBIOPUT_VSCREENINFO call with invalid xres setting
or yres setting in struct fb_var_screeninfo will result in a
KASAN: vmalloc-out-of-bounds failure in bitfill_aligned() as
the margins are being cleared. The margins are cleared in
chunks and if the xres setting or yres setting is a value of
zero upto the chunk size, the failure will occur.

Add a margin check to validate xres and yres settings.
