We can easily use FBIOPUT_VSCREENINFO set fb_var_screeninfo, so
it's possible for a divide by zero error to occur.

Fix this by making sure the divisor is non-zero before the computation.

This is above here:
htotal = var->xres + var->right_margin + var->hsync_len +
var->left_margin;
vtotal = var->yres + var->lower_margin + var->vsync_len +
var->upper_margin;

I don't see how htotal and vtotal can become zero...
