After 02f0777a

 "vc_origin" is no
longer reset to the screen buffer before calling the con_init() hook
of the new console driver.

If the old driver wasn't using a fixed scanout buffer (e.g. the case
of vgacon) "vc_origin" may be a pointer to a VRAM location, and its
contents aren't guaranteed to be preserved after calling con_deinit()
on the old driver and con_init() on the new driver, i.e. the
subsequent console resize may fill the framebuffer with garbage.

It can be reproduced in the transition from vgacon to the nouveau
framebuffer driver: in that case the legacy VGA aperture "vc_origin"
points to becomes unreadable after fbcon_init().

This patch reverts the mentioned commit. To avoid the problem it
intended to fix, stop using "vc_scr_end" in vc_do_resize() to
calculate how many rows we have to copy (actually the code looks
simpler this way without the help of "vc_scr_end").
