vgacon: unconfuse vc_origin when using soft scrollback
When CONFIG_VGACON_SOFT_SCROLLBACK is selected, the VGA display memory index and vc_visible_origin don't change when scrollback is activated. The actual screen content is saved away and the scrollbackdata is copied over it. However the vt code, and /dev/vcs devices in particular, still expect vc_origin to always point at the actual screen content not the displayed scrollback content. So adjust vc_origin to point at the saved screen content when scrollback is active and set it back to vc_visible_origin when restoring the screen. This fixes /dev/vcsa<n> that return scrollback content when they shouldn't (onli /dev/vcsa without a number should), and also fixes /dev/vcsu that should return scrollback content when scrollback is active but currently doesn't. An unnecessary call to vga_set_mem_top() is also removed.
