Helge Deller 820949bbf3 Revert "vgacon: Add check for vc_origin address range in vgacon_scroll()"
commit e4fc307d8e24f122402907ebf585248cad52841d upstream.

This reverts commit 864f9963ec6b4b76d104d595ba28110b87158003.

The patch is wrong as it checks vc_origin against vc_screenbuf,
while in text mode it should compare against vga_vram_base.

As such it broke VGA text scrolling, which can be reproduced like this:
(1) boot a kernel that is configured to use text mode VGA-console
(2) type commands:  ls -l /usr/bin | less -S
(3) scroll up/down with cursor-down/up keys

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
