Sergey Senozhatsky 884e370ea8 printk: CON_PRINTBUFFER console registration is a bit racy
CON_PRINTBUFFER console registration requires us to do several
preparation steps:
- Rollback console_seq to replay logbuf messages which were already
  seen on other consoles;
- Set exclusive_console flag so console_unlock() will ->write() logbuf
  messages only to the exclusive_console driver.

The way we do it, however, is a bit racy

	logbuf_lock_irqsave(flags);
	console_seq = syslog_seq;
	console_idx = syslog_idx;
	logbuf_unlock_irqrestore(flags);
						<< preemption enabled
						<< irqs enabled
	exclusive_console = newcon;
	console_unlock();

We rollback console_seq under logbuf_lock with IRQs disabled, but
we set exclusive_console with local IRQs enabled and logbuf unlocked.
If the system oops-es or panic-s before we set exclusive_console - and
given that we have IRQs and preemption enabled there is such a
possibility - we will re-play all logbuf messages to every registered
console, which may be a bit annoying and time consuming.

Move exclusive_console assignment to the same IRQs-disabled and
logbuf_lock-protected section where we rollback console_seq.
