The console functions are using spinlocks while calling fb-driver ops
but udlfb waits for a semaphore in many ops. This results in the BUG
"scheduling while atomic". One of those call flows is e.g.
vt_console_print() (spinlock printing_lock)
(...)
dlfb_ops_imageblit()
dlfb_handle_damage()
dlfb_get_urb()
down_timeout(semaphore)
BUG: scheduling while atomic
(...)
vt_console_print() (release spinlock printing_lock)
Fix this through a workqueue for dlfb_handle_damage().
