Subject: [PATCH printk v3 21/40] printk: introduce console_list_lock

Currently there exist races in register_console(), where the types
of registered consoles are checked (without holding the console_lock)
and then after acquiring the console_lock, it is assumed that the list
has not changed. Also, some code that performs console_unregister()
make similar assumptions.

It might be possible to fix these races using the console_lock. But
it would require a complex analysis of all console drivers to make
sure that the console_lock is not taken in match() and setup()
callbacks. And we really prefer to split up and reduce the
responsibilities of console_lock rather than expand its complexity.
Therefore, introduce a new console_list_lock to provide full
synchronization for any console list changes.

In addition, also use console_list_lock for synchronization of
console->flags updates. All flags are either static or modified only
during the console registration. There are only two exceptions.

The first exception is CON_ENABLED, which is also modified by
console_start()/console_stop(). Therefore, these functions must
also take the console_list_lock.

The second exception is when the flags are modified by the console
driver init code before the console is registered. These will be
ignored because they are not visible to the rest of the system
via the console_drivers list.

Note that one of the various responsibilities of the console_lock is
also intended to provide console list and console->flags
synchronization. Later changes will update call sites relying on the
console_lock for these purposes. Once all call sites have been
updated, the console_lock will be relieved of synchronizing
console_list and console->flags updates.
