Got an bug report from someone using a silicon motion video card in VGA mode about corruption that they tracked down to 64-bit memory operations not being supported by the video card, it appears that we probably shouldn't be using > 32-bit copies on VGA memory.
The include/linux/vt_buffer.h defaults scr_memcpyw defaults to using memcpy, which on 64-bit x86 machines ends up as rep movsq. Is there any way to make this use a 32-bit memcpy instead?
