This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled

    fbcon: prevent user font height or width change from causing

to my tty git tree which can be found at
    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/tty.git
in the tty-linus branch.

The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree
(usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)

The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the
next -rc kernel release.

If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

Subject: fbcon: prevent user font height or width change from causing
 potential out-of-bounds access

Add a check to fbcon_resize() to ensure that a possible change to user font
height or user font width will not allow a font data out-of-bounds access.
NOTE: must use original charcount in calculation as font charcount can
change and cannot be used to determine the font data allocated size.
