pstore: Remove needless lock during console writes

mainline inclusion
from mainline-5.0
commit b77fa617a2ff
category: bugfix
bugzilla: 5889
CVE: NA

-------------------------------------------------

Since the console writer does not use the preallocated crash dump buffer
any more, there is no reason to perform locking around it.

Fixes: 70ad35db ("pstore: Convert console write to use ->write_buf")
