Create a kthread for each console to perform console printing. During
normal operation (@system_state == SYSTEM_RUNNING), the kthread
printers are responsible for all printing on their respective
consoles.

During non-normal operation, console printing is done as it has been:
within the context of the printk caller or within irqwork triggered
by the printk caller, referred to as direct printing.

Since threaded console printers are responsible for all printing
during normal operation, this also includes messages generated via
deferred printk calls. If direct printing is in effect during a
deferred printk call, the queued irqwork will perform the direct
printing. To make it clear that this is the only time that the
irqwork will perform direct printing, rename the flag
PRINTK_PENDING_OUTPUT to PRINTK_PENDING_DIRECT_OUTPUT.

Threaded console printers synchronize against each other and against
console lockers by taking the console lock for each message that is
printed.

Note that the kthread printers do not care about direct printing.
They will always try to print if new records are available. They can
be blocked by direct printing, but will be woken again once direct
printing is finished.

Console unregistration is a bit tricky because the associated
kthread printer cannot be stopped while the console lock is held.
A policy is implemented that states: whichever task clears
con->thread (under the console lock) is responsible for stopping
the kthread. unregister_console() will clear con->thread while
the console lock is held and then stop the kthread after releasing
the console lock.

For consoles that have implemented the exit() callback, the kthread
is stopped before exit() is called.
