Subject[PATCH] Software Suspend: Fix suspend when console is in VT_AUTO+KD_GRAPHICS mode
From
Date
Hi All,

When the console is in VT_AUTO+KD_GRAPHICS mode, switching to the
SUSPEND_CONSOLE fails, resulting in vt_waitactive() waiting indefinitely
or until the task is interrupted. This patch tests if a console switch
can occur in set_console() and returns early if a console switch is not
possible.
