Dan's static analysis says:
drivers/video/fbdev/controlfb.c:560 control_setup()
error: buffer overflow 'control_mac_modes' 20 <= 21
Indeed, control_mac_modes[] has only 20 elements, while VMODE_MAX is 22,
which may lead to an out of bounds read when parsing vmode commandline
options.
The bug was introduced in v2.4.5.6, when 2 new modes were added to
macmodes.h, but control_mac_modes[] wasn't updated:
https://kernel.opensuse.org/cgit/kernel/diff/include/video/macmodes.h?h=v2.5.2&id=29f279c764808560eaceb88fef36cbc35c529aad
Augment control_mac_modes[] with the two new video modes to fix this.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
