So I think a lot of the problems with this series is that SRCU is
introduced too late. We are debating things in patch 6 that are
irrelevant by patch 12.

I will rework the series so that the changes come in the following
order:

1. provide an atomic console_is_enabled()

2. convert the list to SRCU

3. move all iterators from console_lock()/console_trylock() to SRCU

Step 3 may result in console_lock()/console_trylock() calls disappearing
or relocating to where they are needed for non-list-synchronization
purposes.
