.con_font_set and .con_font_default callbacks should not pass `struct console_font *` as a parameter, since `struct console_font` is a UAPI structure. We are trying to let them use our new kernel font descriptor, `struct font_desc` instead. To make that work slightly easier, first delete all of their no-op implementations used by dummy consoles. This will make KD_FONT_OP_SET and KD_FONT_OP_SET_DEFAULT ioctl() requests on dummy consoles start to fail and return `-ENOSYS`, which is intended, since no user should ever expect such operations to succeed on dummy consoles.

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.
