Subject[PATCH 4.4 20/46] fbcon: remove soft scrollback code
Date

If I am not wrong, this change creates crash in v4.4.y.
As before calling con_scrolldelta, NULL check is missing inside
console_callback() for v4.4.y, refer:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/tree/drivers/tty/vt/vt.c?h=linux-4.4.y#n2487

This NULL check was added in commit 97293de977365fe672daec2523e66ef457104921,
and this is not merged to v4.4.y
