Samuel Thibault b293d75847 Console events and accessibility
Some external modules like Speakup need to monitor console output.

This adds a VT notifier that such modules can use to get console output events:
allocation, deallocation, writes, other updates (cursor position, switch, etc.)

/*
* Notifier chains are of four types:
*
* Atomic notifier chains: Chain callbacks run in interrupt/atomic
* context. Callouts are not allowed to block.
* Blocking notifier chains: Chain callbacks run in process context.
* Callouts are allowed to block.
* Raw notifier chains: There are no restrictions on callbacks,
* registration, or unregistration. All locking and protection
* must be provided by the caller.
* SRCU notifier chains: A variant of blocking notifier chains, with
* the same restrictions.
*
* atomic_notifier_chain_register() may be called from an atomic context,
* but blocking_notifier_chain_register() and srcu_notifier_chain_register()
* must be called from a process context. Ditto for the corresponding
* _unregister() routines.
*
* atomic_notifier_chain_unregister(), blocking_notifier_chain_unregister(),
* and srcu_notifier_chain_unregister() _must not_ be called from within
* the call chain.
*
* SRCU notifier chains are an alternative form of blocking notifier chains.
* They use SRCU (Sleepable Read-Copy Update) instead of rw-semaphores for
* protection of the chain links. This means there is _very_ low overhead
* in srcu_notifier_call_chain(): no cache bounces and no memory barriers.
* As compensation, srcu_notifier_chain_unregister() is rather expensive.
* SRCU notifier chains should be used when the chain will be called very
* often but notifier_blocks will seldom be removed. Also, SRCU notifier
* chains are slightly more difficult to use because they require special
* runtime initialization.
