IMHO, you need to put "console_sem" down if you want to test
"console_suspended". And you must keep it down until you resume
the console to avoid a race => we could not call resume_console()
in the current form.

Also I am a bit nervous that this operation is not symmetric
and the console will stay resumed. Please look at bust_spinlocks(),
how this function is used in panic(), and see how the
"oops_in_progress" is handled.

To be honest, I do not understand this code in details enough
and I do not have time to investigate it at the moment.
I just use a common sense to produce this feedback. Others
might give you a better feedback. It is possible that this
should get handled a more generic way and not by a ramoops
specific handler.

BTW: Have you tested this with more consoles attached? I wonder
if other consoles are still usable in this situation and if
they will not block the output to ramoops.

Best Regards,
Petr
