Hi,

I would like to once again request backporting 5326ab737a47 ("virtio_console: fix order of fields cols and rows") to LTS kernels (6.12.x, 6.6.x, 6.1.x, 5.15.x and 5.10.x). The patch fixes a discrepancy between the Virtio spec and the Linux implementation.

Previously, we were considering changing the spec instead, however, a decision has been made [1] to keep the spec and backport the kernel fix.

Thanks, Filip Hejsek
