From: Nicolas Pitre <nico@xxxxxxxxxxx> commit 0c9acb1af77a3cb8707e43f45b72c95266903cee upstream. Commit d21b0be246bf ("vt: introduce unicode mode for /dev/vcs") guarded against using devices containing attributes as this is not yet implemented. It however failed to guard against writes to any devices as this is also unimplemented.
