printk: wake up klogd in vprintk_emit
We wake up klogd very late - only when current console_sem owner is done pushing pending kernel messages to the serial/net consoles. In some cases this results in lost syslog messages, because kernel log buffer is a circular buffer and if we don't wakeup syslog long enough there are chances that logbuf simply will wrap around. The patch moves the klogd wake up call to vprintk_emit(), which is the only legit way for a kernel message to appear in the logbuf, right after the attempt to handle consoles. As a result, klogd will get waken either after flushing the new message to consoles or immediately when consoles are still busy with older messages.
