fbdev/core: Disable console-lock warnings when fb.lockless_register_fb is set

Browse source 
If the console is unlocked during registration, the console subsystem
generates significant amounts of warnings, which obfuscate actual
debugging messages. Setting ignore_console_lock_warning while debugging
console registration avoid the noise.

v3:
	- manipulate ignore_console_lock_warning with atomic_{inc,dec}
v2:
	- restore ignore_console_lock_warning if lock_fb_info() fails
