From: Martin Schwidefsky If something goes wrong in a suspend / resume cycle a ccw based console if very likely in the suspended state and cannot print anything. Introduce ccw_device_force_console to force the wake up of the console device to be able to print the oops message. The console device drivers should use this function only if the system paniced.
