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

From: "Pieter \\\"PoroCYon\\\" Sluys" <pcy@national.shitposting.agency>
[ Upstream commit 7b9faf5df0ac495a1a3d7cdb64921c179f9008ac ]
Currently, when loading the vfb module, the newly created fbdev
has a line_length of 0, and its video mode would be PSEUDOCOLOR
regardless of color depth. (The former could be worked around by
calling the FBIOPUT_VSCREENINFO ioctl with having the FBACTIVIATE_FORCE
flag set.) This patch automatically sets the line_length correctly,
and the video mode is derived from the bit depth now as well.
Thanks to Geert Uytterhoeven for confirming the bug and helping me with
the patch.
