Fix a warning about possible circular locking dependency.

If do in following sequence:

    enter suspend ->  resume ->  plug-out CPUx (echo 0 > cpux/online)

lockdep will show warning as following:

  ======================================================

  (cpu_hotplug.lock){+.+.+.}, at: cpu_hotplug_begin+0x2c/0x58
  which lock already depends on the new lock.

  Chain exists of:

  Possible unsafe locking scenario:
         CPU0                    CPU1
         ----                    ----
  lock(cpu_hotplug.lock);
                                 lock(cpu_add_remove_lock);
                                 lock(cpu_hotplug.lock);
  lock(console_lock);
    *** DEADLOCK ***

There are three locks involved in two sequence:
a) pm suspend:
console_lock (@suspend_console())
cpu_add_remove_lock (@disable_nonboot_cpus())
cpu_hotplug.lock (@_cpu_down())
b) Plug-out CPUx:
cpu_add_remove_lock (@(cpu_down())
cpu_hotplug.lock (@_cpu_down())
console_lock (@console_cpu_notify()) => Lockdeps prints warning log.

There should be not real deadlock, as flag of console_suspended can
protect this.

Although console_suspend() releases console_sem, it doesn't tell lockdep
about it.  That results in the lockdep warning about circular locking
when doing the following: enter suspend -> resume -> plug-out CPUx (echo
0 > cpux/online)

Fix the problem by telling lockdep we actually released the semaphore in
console_suspend() and acquired it again in console_resume().
