DESCRIPTION
Releases the semaphore which the caller holds on the console system
and the console driver list.
While the semaphore was held, console output may have been buffered
by printk. If this is the case, release_console_sem emits
the output prior to releasing the semaphore.
If there is output waiting for klogd, we wake it up.
release_console_sem may be called from any context.
