[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.14 70/95] vt: always call notifier with the console lock held

From: Sasha Levin
Date: Tue May 07 2019 - 01:49:54 EST


From: Nicolas Pitre <nicolas.pitre@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 7e1d226345f89ad5d0216a9092c81386c89b4983 ]

Every invocation of notify_write() and notify_update() is performed
under the console lock, except for one case. Let's fix that.
