Disable the GENI interrupts during console writes to reduce the risk of
having interrupt handlers spinning on the port lock on other cores for
extended periods of time.
This can, for example, reduce the total amount of time spent in the
interrupt handler during boot of the x1e80100 CRD by up to a factor nine
(e.g. from 274 ms to 30 ms) while the worst case processing time drops
from 19 ms to 8 ms.
