console_lock is the outermost subsystem lock for a lot of subsystems, which means get/put_user must nest within. Which means it cannot be acquired somewhere deeply nested in other locks, and most definitely not while holding fs locks potentially needed to resolve faults.
console_trylock is the best we can do here. Including printk folks since even trylock feels realyl iffy here to me.
