I found that

  const int fd = open("/dev/fb0", O_ACCMODE);
  struct fb_var_screeninfo var = { };
  ioctl(fd, FBIOGET_VSCREENINFO, &var);
  var.xres = var.yres = 1;
  ioctl(fd, FBIOPUT_VSCREENINFO, &var);

causes general protection fault in bitfill_aligned(), for vc_do_resize()
updates vc->vc_{cols,rows} only when vc_do_resize() will return 0.

If vc_do_resize() fails (e.g. kzalloc() failure) when var.xres or var.yres
is going to shrink, bit_clear_margins() hits integer underflow bug due to
info->var.xres < (vc->vc_cols * cw) or info->var.yres < (vc->vc_rows * ch).
Unexpectedly large rw or bh will try to overrun the __iomem region and
causes general protection fault.

This crash is easily reproducible by calling vc_do_resize(vc, 0, 0)
which the reproducer above will do. Since fbcon_modechanged() is doing

  cols = FBCON_SWAP(ops->rotate, info->var.xres, info->var.yres);
  rows = FBCON_SWAP(ops->rotate, info->var.yres, info->var.xres);
  cols /= vc->vc_font.width;
  rows /= vc->vc_font.height;
  vc_resize(vc, cols, rows);
  (...snipped...)
  update_screen(vc);

, var.xres < vc->vc_font.width makes cols = 0 and var.yres < vc->vc_font.height
makes rows = 0. But vc_do_resize() does not set vc->vc_cols = vc->vc_rows = 0
due to

  new_cols = (cols ? cols : vc->vc_cols);
  new_rows = (lines ? lines : vc->vc_rows);

exception.

Of course, the root problem is that callers of do_vc_resize() are not
handling vc_do_resize() failures, but it might not be easy to handle
them under complicated dependency. Therefore, as a band-aid workaround,
this patch checks integer underflow in "struct fbcon_ops"->clear_margins
call, assuming that vc->vc_cols * vc->vc_font.width and
vc->vc_rows * vc->vc_font.heigh do not cause integer overflow.

I hope that we can survive even if info->var.{xres,yres} were increased
but vc->vc_{cols,rows} were not increased due to kzalloc() failure, for
the __iomem memory for cfb_fillrect() seems to be allocated upon driver
load.

By the way, syzbot has several reports which are stalling inside filling
functions. Although reproducer for [1] is not found yet, it has tried

  r0 = openat$fb0(0xffffffffffffff9c, &(0x7f0000000180)='/dev/fb0\x00', 0x0, 0x0)
  ioctl$FBIOPUT_VSCREENINFO(r0, 0x4601, &(0x7f0000000000)={0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x500, 0x0, 0x0, 0x4})

which corresponds to

  const int fd = open("/dev/fb0", O_ACCMODE);
  struct fb_var_screeninfo var = { };
  var.yres_virtual = 0x500;
  var.bits_per_pixel = 4;
  ioctl(fd, FBIOPUT_VSCREENINFO, &var);

and somehow hit unexpectedly long bit_clear_margins() loops. I don't know
why syzbot does not hit general protection fault, but it would depend on
environment because in my VMware environment ioctl(FBIOPUT_VSCREENINFO)
returns -EINVAL if var.xres == var.yres == 0.
