When syzkaller tests, there is a UAF:

It can be reproduce in the linux mainline by the program:
  #include <stdio.h>
  #include <stdlib.h>
  #include <unistd.h>
  #include <fcntl.h>
  #include <sys/types.h>
  #include <sys/stat.h>
  #include <sys/ioctl.h>
  #include <linux/vt.h>

  struct tiocl_selection {
    unsigned short xs;      /* X start */
    unsigned short ys;      /* Y start */
    unsigned short xe;      /* X end */
    unsigned short ye;      /* Y end */
    unsigned short sel_mode; /* selection mode */
  };

  #define TIOCL_SETSEL    2
  struct tiocl {
    unsigned char type;
    unsigned char pad;
    struct tiocl_selection sel;
  };

  int main()
  {
    int fd = 0;
    const char *dev = "/dev/char/4:1";

    struct vt_consize v = {0};
    struct tiocl tioc = {0};

    fd = open(dev, O_RDWR, 0);

    v.v_rows = 3346;
    ioctl(fd, VT_RESIZEX, &v);

    tioc.type = TIOCL_SETSEL;
    ioctl(fd, TIOCLINUX, &tioc);

    return 0;
  }

When resize the screen, update the 'vc->vc_size_row' to the new_row_size,
but when 'set_origin' in 'vgacon_set_origin', vgacon use 'vga_vram_base'
for 'vc_origin' and 'vc_visible_origin', not 'vc_screenbuf'. It maybe
smaller than 'vc_screenbuf'. When TIOCLINUX, use the new_row_size to calc
the offset, it maybe larger than the vga_vram_size in vgacon driver, then
bad access.
Also, if set an larger screenbuf firstly, then set an more larger
screenbuf, when copy old_origin to new_origin, a bad access may happen.

So, If the screen size larger than vga_vram, resize screen should be
failed. This alse fix CVE-2020-8649 and CVE-2020-8647.
