[PATCH printk v4 33/39] proc: consoles: use console_list_lock for list iteration

[John Ogness]

The console_lock is used in part to guarantee safe list iteration.
The console_list_lock should be used because list synchronization
responsibility will be removed from the console_lock in a later
change.

Note, the console_lock is still needed to serialize the device()
callback with other console operations.
