Subject: [PATCH 2/2] SERIAL_CONSOLE: Add support for running console rx
interrupts directly
This patch allows serial console interrupts to be optionally handled in
interrupt context directly instead of dispatching a thread. It is only
applicable when IRQs are threaded, and is thus predicated on PREEMPT_HARDIRQS.
This modification can be useful for allowing tools like sysrq to get
through more reliably.
