Regardless of whether a vc path is passed, the behavior of systemd-vconsole-setup wasn't ideal when either the passed vc or /dev/tty1 was in graphics mode. When a vc in graphics mode was passed, no message was emitted despite the fact that the font settings couldn't be applied. The previous code might have assumed that setfont(8) would throw a warning but that's not case. When no argument was passed, systemd-vconsole-setup was supposed to automatically select a valid tty, init it and copy the font setting to the remaining ttys. However if the selected virtual console was in KD_GRAPHICS mode the initialization of the font failed not only for the selected source vc but for all of them.
