The geni serial driver's shutdown code had a special case to call

As far as I can tell there's no reason to call console_stop() in the
geni code.  ...and a good reason _not_ to call it.  Specifically if
you have an agetty running on the same serial port as the console then
killing the agetty kills your console and if you start the agetty
again the console doesn't come back.
