[PATCH] fbcon: don�t call set_par() in fbcon_init() if vc_mode == KD_GRAPHICS

Nothing prevents a user to modprobe a framebuffer driver from e.g.  the
xterm prompt.  As a result, the set_par() function of the driver will be
called from fbcon_init().

This is fatal as a lot of X / framebuffer combinations are unable to
recover from set_par() reprogramming the graphics controller in
KD_GRAPHICS mode.

It is also unnecessary as the set_par() function will be called during a
switch to KD_TEXT anyway.  Because of this no side effects are possible.
