4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Thomas Zimmermann <tzimmermann@xxxxxxx> commit c2d311553855395764e2e5bf401d987ba65c2056 upstream. When calling vmw_fb_set_par(), the mode stored in par->set_mode gets free'd twice. The first free is in vmw_fb_kms_detach(), the second is near the end of vmw_fb_set_par() under the name of 'old_mode'. The mode-setting code only works correctly if the mode doesn't actually change. Removing 'old_mode' in favor of using par->set_mode directly fixes the problem.
