While this fixes the crash, it is not correct: according to the
fbdev API, invalid values must be rounded up to a supported value,
if possible.  -EINVAL should only be returned if rounding up values
in fb_var_screeninfo cannot give a valid mode.

The same comment applies to the other patches in this series:
[PATCH v2 2/3] video: fbdev: kyro: Error out if 'pixclock' equals zero
[PATCH v2 3/3] video: fbdev: riva: Error out if 'pixclock' equals zero
