With Sparse support gone, Clang is a bit more strict and warns:
./include/linux/console.h:492:50: error: use of undeclared identifier 'console_mutex'
492 | extern void console_list_unlock(void) __releases(console_mutex);
Since it does not make sense to make console_mutex itself global, move
the annotation to printk.c. Capability analysis remains disabled for
printk.c.
This is needed to enable capability analysis for modules that include
<linux/console.h>.
