Replace comments about places where the console lock should be held with
calls to WARN_CONSOLE_UNLOCKED() to assert that it is actually held.

Debugging fbcon sometimes requires to not take the console lock. This
patch breaks the debugging workaround provided by
'fb.lockless_register_fb'. The dmesg is now filled with warnings about
the missing lock.


What if you make lockless_register_fb visible to fbcon, and then we can
have a macro:

#define WARN_FB_CONSOLE_UNLOCKED() 			\
	do {						\
		if (unlikely(!lockless_register_fb))	\
			WARN_CONSOLE_UNLOCKED();	\
	} while (0)

And use that instead?

Yes I'm already preparing a patch like that :)

Without the unlikely though, this is not used in hot paths.

Regards,

Hans
