This patch guards the console_drivers list to be corrupted. The for_each_console() macro insist on a strictly forward list ended by NULL: con0->next->con1->next->NULL Without this patch it may happen easily to destroy this list for example by adding 'earlyprintk' twice, especially on embedded devices where the early console is often a single static instance. This will result in the following list: con0->next->con0 This in turn will result in an endless loop in console_unlock() later on by printing the first __log_buf line endlessly.
