[ Upstream commit b4a6aaeaf4aa79f23775f6688a7e8db3ee1c1303 ]
Before the drm driver had support for this file there was a driver that
exposed the contents of the vga password register to userspace. It would
present the entire register instead of interpreting it.
The drm implementation chose to mask of the lower bit, without explaining
why. This breaks the existing userspace, which is looking for 0xa8 in
the lower byte.
Change our implementation to expose the entire register.

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.
