[PATCH printk v2 35/38] tty: tty_io: use console_list_lock for list synchronization

[John Ogness]

show_cons_active() uses the console_lock to gather information
on registered consoles. It requires that no consoles are unregistered
until it is finished. The console_list_lock should be used because
list synchronization repsponsibility will be removed from the
console_lock in a later change.

Note, the console_lock is still needed to stop console printing.
