Subject: tty/vt: don't set font mappings on vc not supporting this
From: Imre Deak <[email protected]>
commit 9e326f78713a4421fe11afc2ddeac07698fac131 upstream.
We can call this function for a dummy console that doesn't support setting the font mapping, which will result in a null ptr BUG. So check for this case and return error for consoles w/o font mapping support.
