Bernhard Walle 5ada918b82 vt: introduce and use vt_kmsg_redirect() function
The kernel offers with TIOCL_GETKMSGREDIRECT ioctl() the possibility to
redirect the kernel messages to a specific console.

However, since it's not possible to switch to the kernel message console
after a panic(), it would be nice if the kernel would print the panic
message on the current console.

This patch series adds a new interface to access the global kmsg_redirect
variable by a function to be able to use it in code where
CONFIG_VT_CONSOLE is not set (kernel/panic.c).

This patch:

Instead of using and exporting a global value kmsg_redirect, introduce a
function vt_kmsg_redirect() that both can set and return the console where
messages are printed.

Change all users of kmsg_redirect (the VT code itself and kernel/power.c)
to the new interface.

The main advantage is that vt_kmsg_redirect() can also be used when
CONFIG_VT_CONSOLE is not set.
