Fix locking bug in "acquire_console_semaphore_for_printk()"

When I cleaned up printk() and split up the printk locking logic in
commit 266c2e0a ("Make printk() console
semaphore accesses sensible") I had incorrectly moved the call to
have_callable_console() outside of the console semaphore.

That was buggy.  The console semaphore protects the console_drivers list
that is used by have_callable_console().

Thanks go to Bongani Hlope who saw this as a hang on shutdown and reboot
and bisected the bug to the right commit, and tested this patch. See
