Commit 40f70c03e33a ("serial: sh-sci: add locking to console write
function to avoid SMP lockup") copied the strategy to avoid locking
problems in conjuncture with the console from the UART8250
driver. Instead using directly spin_{try}lock_irqsave(),
local_irq_save() followed by spin_{try}lock() was used. While this is
correct on mainline, for -rt it is a problem. spin_{try}lock() will
check if it is running in a valid context. Since the local_irq_save()
has already been executed, the context has changed and
spin_{try}lock() will complain. The reason why spin_{try}lock()
complains is that on -rt the spin locks are turned into mutexes and
therefore can sleep. Sleeping with interrupts disabled is not valid.
BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at /home/wagi/work/rt/v4.4-cip-rt/kernel/locking/rtmutex.c:995

changes since v2:
- dropped the local_irq_save() it's wrong as Sebastian pointed out
changes since v1:
- Ported to current mainline (initial version was against v4.4.y)
- Left local_irq_save() in place when spinlocks are not used as suggested
by Geert.
