These patches seem trival but they are very important for my new console
lock patch coming soon. Basically I have made the console lock more finer
grain. Each individual console is locked instead of all consoles when
printk is called. Their is no reason to block the serial console when say
the printk is currently writting to the VT console. This small patch is
the first step toward that. Also tusing vc_tty will be needed in
keyboard.c when it handles more than one keyboard.
