  kgdboc: disable the console lock when in kgdb (2019-07-30 17:39:39 +0200)

----------------------------------------------------------------
TTY fix for 5.3-rc4

Here is a single tty kgdb fix for 5.3-rc4.

It fixes an annoying log message that has caused kdb to become useless.
It's another fallout from ddde3c18b700 ("vt: More locking checks") which
tries to enforce locking checks more strictly in the tty layer,
unfortunatly when kdb is stopped, there's no need for locks :)

This patch has been linux-next for a while with no reported issues
