Subject: [PATCH v2 0/1] tty: serial: samsung: add spin_lock in console_write

When console and printk log are printed at the same time,
they are called through tty driver and console driver concurrently.
In this case, this could lead to potintial issue that
data loss or fifo full.

This issue also occurred with other drivers and has been fixed.
