kgdboc: disable the console lock when in kgdb
After commit ddde3c18 ("vt: More locking checks") kdb / kgdb has become useless because my console is filled with spews of: WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 0 at .../drivers/tty/vt/vt.c:3846 con_is_visible+0x50/0x74 CPU: 0 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 5.3.0-rc1+ #48 Hardware name: Rockchip (Device Tree) Backtrace: [<c020ce9c>] (dump_backtrace) from [<c020d188>] (show_stack+0x20/0x24) [<c020d168>] (show_stack) from [<c0a8fc14>] (dump_stack+0xb0/0xd0) [<c0a8fb64>] (dump_stack) from [<c0232c58>] (__warn+0xec/0x11c) [<c0232b6c>] (__warn) from [<c0232dc4>] (warn_slowpath_null+0x4c/0x58) [<c0232d78>] (warn_slowpath_null) from [<c06338a0>] (con_is_visible+0x50/0x74) [<c0633850>] (con_is_visible) from [<c0634078>] (con_scroll+0x108/0x1ac) [<c0633f70>] (con_scroll) from [<c0634160>] (lf+0x44/0x88) [<c063411c>] (lf) from [<c06363ec>] (vt_console_print+0x1a4/0x2bc) [<c0636248>] (vt_console_print) from [<c02f628c>] (vkdb_printf+0x420/0x8a4) [<c02f5e6c>] (vkdb_printf) from [<c02f6754>] (kdb_printf+0x44/0x60) [<c02f6714>] (kdb_printf) from [<c02fa6f4>] (kdb_main_loop+0xf4/0x6e0) [<c02fa600>] (kdb_main_loop) from [<c02fd5f0>] (kdb_stub+0x268/0x398) [<c02fd388>] (kdb_stub) from [<c02f3ba0>] (kgdb_cpu_enter+0x1f8/0x674) [<c02f39a8>] (kgdb_cpu_enter) from [<c02f4330>] (kgdb_handle_exception+0x1c4/0x1fc) [<c02f416c>] (kgdb_handle_exception) from [<c0210fe0>] (kgdb_compiled_brk_fn+0x30/0x3c) [<c0210fb0>] (kgdb_compiled_brk_fn) from [<c020d7ac>] (do_undefinstr+0x180/0x1a0) [<c020d62c>] (do_undefinstr) from [<c0201b44>] (__und_svc_finish+0x0/0x3c) ...

The whole system is stopped when we're in kgdb so we can't exactly wait for someone else to drop the lock. Presumably the best we can do is to disable the warning and hope for the best.
