Nope, it's not an unintentional bugfix. The old con2fb_acquire_newinfo did
reset con2fb_map to oldidx upon failure, which I've found to be a most
bizarre calling convention. So this sorts this out.

The reason I smashed this into the same patch is that I had to remove the
fbcon_release call, and so the error handling in there looked even more
funny. But I indeed failed to explain this all in the commit message.

Ack with that explainer, or do you want me to split this out properly?
