After the panic() message has been printed kernel may blink keyboard

atkbd warns that "Some program might be trying access hardware directly"
at every blink, scrolling the useful text out of the screen.
Avoid printing the warning when oops_in_progress is set in order to
preserve the panic message.


Hi Luca,

Current input git tree already has code in i8042 supressing extra ACKs
caused by palic blinks; as soon as Linus pulls from me you should not
see these messages anymore.
