From: Helge Deller <deller@xxxxxx> commit 65a01e601dbba8b7a51a2677811f70f783766682 upstream. Prevent that users set a font size which is bigger than the physical screen. It's unlikely this may happen (because screens are usually much larger than the fonts and each font char is limited to 32x32 pixels), but it may happen on smaller screens/LCD displays.
