[PATCH 3/7] kms,kdb: Force unblank a console device

From: Jason Wessel
Date: Fri Feb 12 2010 - 17:40:54 EST


The kgdboc pre exception handler must atomically save the state of the
existing VC console and activate it, if it is blanked.

Before restoring the kernel to a running state, the kgdboc post
exception handler will restore the state of the VC variables that got
changed while atomic.
