fbmem: pull fbcon_update_vcs() out of fb_set_var()
syzbot is reporting OOB read bug in vc_do_resize() [1] caused by memcpy() based on outdated old_{rows,row_size} values, for resize_screen() can recurse into vc_do_resize() which changes vc->vc_{cols,rows} that outdates old_{rows,row_size} values which were saved before calling resize_screen(). Daniel Vetter explained that resize_screen() should not recurse into fbcon_update_vcs() path due to FBINFO_MISC_USEREVENT being still set when calling resize_screen(). Instead of masking FBINFO_MISC_USEREVENT before calling fbcon_update_vcs(), we can remove FBINFO_MISC_USEREVENT by calling fbcon_update_vcs() only if fb_set_var() returned 0. This change assumes that it is harmless to call fbcon_update_vcs() when fb_set_var() returned 0 without reaching fb_notifier_call_chain().
