The fix for this is to use scnprintf() instead of snprintf(). We can re-write this code to be cleaner: 1) Rename "offset" to "off" because that's shorter. 2) Get rid of the "cnt" variable and just use "size - off" directly. 3) Get rid of the "read" variable and just increment "off" directly.

[ Upstream commit 78482af095abd9f4f29f1aa3fe575d25c6ae3028 ]

This code has two bugs:
1) "cnt" is 255 but the size of the buffer is 256 so the last byte is
   not used.
2) If we try to print more than 255 characters then "cnt" will be
   negative and that will trigger a WARN() in snprintf(). The fix for
   this is to use scnprintf() instead of snprintf().

We can re-write this code to be cleaner:
1) Rename "offset" to "off" because that's shorter.
2) Get rid of the "cnt" variable and just use "size - off" directly.
3) Get rid of the "read" variable and just increment "off" directly.

fbdev: fix CVT vertical front and back porch values 2015-01-27T11:35:37+00:00 Tomi Valkeinen tomi.valkeinen@ti.com 2015-01-21T07:38:16+00:00 4d073292a74b31ea00443d7778a95c209140aa42 CVT v1.1 spec says: "the vertical front porch shall in all cases be fixed to 3 lines". The code in fbcvt.c instead sets the _back_ porch to 3 (plus margin). After swapping cvt.v_front_porch and cvt.v_back_porch the resulting timings were in line with CVT timings in VESA DMT spec. The bug seems to be more than 9 years old, but I presume it has not been noticed as usually the video timings come from the EDID or from the timing tables in fbdev, and probably swapped values for vfp and vbp work fine for most of the displays.

fbdev: move fbdev core files to separate directory 2014-04-17T05:10:19+00:00 Tomi Valkeinen tomi.valkeinen@ti.com 2014-02-13T14:24:55+00:00 19757fc8432ac97a07a890d6310cccc1896a1b36 Instead of having fbdev framework core files at the root fbdev directory, mixed with random fbdev device drivers, move the fbdev core files to a separate core directory. This makes it much clearer which of the files are actually part of the fbdev framework, and which are part of device drivers.
