After a call to console_unlock() in vcs_write() the vc_data struct can be
freed by vc_port_destruct(). Because of that, the struct vc_data pointer
must be reloaded in the while loop in vcs_write() after console_lock() to
avoid a UAF when vcs_size() is called.
Syzkaller reported a UAF in vcs_size().

Disabling lock debugging due to kernel taint

v3: changed to "ret = -ENXIO;"
v2: added "ret = -EINVAL;"
v1: This patch is similar to the recent UAF vcs_read() patches (226fae124b2d & 46d733d0efc7).
vcs_write() should have been checked for the same UAF issue at the same time the fixes went
into vcs_read().
