drm/nouveau/fbcon: using nv_two_heads is not a good idea
commit 9bd0c15f upstream. nv_two_heads() was never meant to be used outside of pre-nv50 code. The code checks for >= NV_10 for 2 CRTCs, then downgrades a few specific chipsets to 1 CRTC based on (pci_device & 0x0ff0). The breakage example seen is on GTX 560Ti, with a pciid of 0x1200, which gets detected as an NV20 (0x020x) with 1 CRTC by nv_two_heads(), causing memory corruption because there's actually 2 CRTCs.. This switches fbcon to use the CRTC count directly from the mode_config structure, which will also fix the same issue on Kepler boards which have 4 CRTCs.
