Interesting... It does look like this was triggered by calling do_blank_screen() without taking the console semaphore, but console_callback() should have taken that. Second point is that vesafb does not have any blanking functionality, thus it should not trigger fbcon_event_notify(). My guess is you are using an out-of-tree vesafb?

I'll look into this.
