Revert "vc_screen: extract vcs_read_buf_header"
This reverts commit b1c32fcfadf5593ab7a63261cc8a5747c36e627e, because Syzkaller reports a use-after-free, a write in vcs_read: BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in vcs_read_buf drivers/tty/vt/vc_screen.c:357 [inline] BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in vcs_read+0xaa7/0xb40 drivers/tty/vt/vc_screen.c:449 Write of size 2 at addr ffff8880a8014000 by task syz-executor.5/16936 CPU: 1 PID: 16936 Comm: syz-executor.5 Not tainted 5.9.0-rc1-next-20200820-syzkaller #0 Hardware name: Google Google Compute Engine/Google Compute Engine, BIOS Google 01/01/2011 Call Trace: ... kasan_report.cold+0x1f/0x37 mm/kasan/report.c:530 vcs_read_buf drivers/tty/vt/vc_screen.c:357 [inline] vcs_read+0xaa7/0xb40 drivers/tty/vt/vc_screen.c:449 There are two issues with the patch: 1) vcs_read rounds the 'count' *up* to an even number. So if we read odd bytes from the header (3 bytes in the reproducer), the second byte of a (2-byte/ushort) write to temporary con_buf won't fit. It is because with the patch applied, we only subtract the real number read (3 bytes) and not the whole header (4 bytes). 2) in this scenario, we perform unaligned accesses now: there are 2-byte/ushort writes to odd addresses. Due to the same reason as above. Revert this for now, re-think and retry later.
