Heh, the check of CON_ENABLED does not make much sense. IMHO, the
important thing is whether the console is in console_list or not.

I would personally add a check at the beginning of register_console()
whether the console is already registered and enabled() and do
nothing when already done.

Actually, register_console() already has this check, but it does a
WARN(). If the debug setup is used for nfcon, this situation is
normal. So probably to avoid the WARN, the CON_ENABLED code was added.

I would be nice to fix this. But it might be done later.

I could add a console_is_registered() function that checks if the
console is in the console list and use that instead. If we are going to
touch this code, we might as well touch it correctly, right?
