Keyboard struct lifetime is easy, but the locking is not and is completely
ignored by the existing code. Tackle this one head on
- Make the kbd_table private so we can run down all direct users
- Hoick the relevant ioctl handlers into the keyboard layer
- Lock them with the keyboard lock so they don't change mid keypress
- Add helpers for things like console stop/start so we isolate the poking
around properly
- Tweak the braille console so it still builds
There are a couple of FIXME locking cases left for ioctls that are so hideous
they should be addressed in a later patch. After this patch the kbd_table is
private and all the keyboard jiggery pokery is in one place.
This update fixes speakup and also a memory leak in the original.

Even though this is valid C we should not mix C99 initializers with

Traditional \E[2J sequence erases console display but scroll-back
buffer and underlying device (frame) buffer keep data that can be
accessed by scrolling console back.
This patch introduce new \E[J parameter 3 that allows to scramble
scroll-back buffer explicitly. Session locking programs (screen,
vlock) can use it to prevent attacker to browse locked console
history.

seems there's no longer need for using con_buf/conf_buf_mtx
as vcs_read/vcs_write buffer for user's data.
The do_con_write function, that was the other user of this,
is currently using its own kmalloc-ed buffer.
Not sure when this got changed, as I was able to find this code
in 2.6.9, but it's already gone as far as current git history
goes - 2.6.12-rc2.
AFAICS there's a behaviour change with the current change.
The lseek is not completely mutually exclusive with the
vcs_read/vcs_write - the file->f_pos might get updated
via lseek callback during the vcs_read/vcs_write processing.
I tried to find out if the prefered behaviour is to keep
this in sync within read/write/lseek functions, but I did
not find any pattern on different places.
I guess if user end up calling write/lseek from different
threads she should know what she's doing. If needed we
could use dedicated fd mutex/buffer.

The -rt patches change the console_semaphore to console_mutex. As a
result, a quite large chunk of the patches changes all
acquire/release_console_sem() to acquire/release_console_mutex()
This commit makes things use more neutral function names which dont make
implications about the underlying lock.
The only real change is the return value of console_trylock which is
inverted from try_acquire_console_sem()
This patch also paves the way to switching console_sem from a semaphore to
a mutex.

With framebuffer handover and multiple GPUs, we get into a
position where the fbcon unbinds the vesafb framebuffer for GPU 1,
but we still have a radeon framebuffer bound from GPU 0, so
we don't unregister the console driver. Then when we tried to bind
the new radeon framebuffer for GPU1 we never get to the bind
call as we fail due to the console being registered already.
This changes the return value to -EBUSY when the driver is
already registered and continues to bind for -EBUSY.

tty: add 'active' sysfs attribute to tty0 and console device
Userspace can query the actual virtual console, and the configured
console devices behind /dev/tt0 and /dev/console.
The last entry in the list of devices is the active device, analog
to the console= kernel command line option.
The attribute supports poll(), which is raised when the virtual
console is changed or /dev/console is reconfigured.
