Every since the 0.99.7A release when console_register() was introduced
it's become impossible to call vt_console_print (called
console_print() back then still) directly. Which means the
initialization issue this variable protected against is no more.

Give it a send off with style and let it rest in peace.

Please disregard this, sent it accidentally instead of v2 of "tty/vt: Add
console_lock check to vt_console_print()".

I saw this was sent again on accident, but that sdoes not prevent me

I was a bit reluctant to r-b it, but well this looks obviously correct,
