Converting milliseconds to jiffies by "val * HZ / 1000" is technically

The default console driver (conswitchp) and busy drivers bound to a
console (as reported by con_is_bound()) shouldn't be unregistered.
System console drivers (without the CON_DRIVER_FLAG_MODULE flag) can be
unregistered, provided they are neither default nor busy. The current
code checks for the CON_DRIVER_FLAG_INIT flag but this doesn't make
sense: this flag is set for a driver whenever its associated console's
con_startup() function is called, which first happens when the console
driver is registered (so before the console gets bound) and gets cleared
when the console gets unbound. The purpose of this flag is to show if we
need to call con_startup() on a console before we use it.
Based on the above, do_unregister_con_driver() in its current form will
allow unregistering a console driver only if it was never bound, but
will refuse to unregister one that was bound and later unbound.
Fix this by dropping the CON_DRIVER_FLAG_INIT check, allowing
unregistering of any console driver provided that it's not the default
one and it's not busy.
v2:
- reword the third paragraph to clarify how the fix works (Peter Hurley)
v3:
- unchanged
v4:
- Allow unregistering a system console driver too, needed by i915 to
unregister vgacon. Update commit description accordingly. (Daniel)

Many local variables were given the same name as a global. This
is valid, but generates many shadow warnings in W=2 builds. Resolve
them by changing the local names. Also change local variables
named "up" because they shadow the semaphore "up" function. Also
moved the outer declaration of the variable "a" because it is
only used in one block, and that resolves all of the shadow warnings
for the other declarations of "a" that have different types.
Change diacr => dia, kbd => kb, rep => rpt, up => udp.

fixes from Daniel [1] to avoid hangs and unclaimed register errors on
module load/reload.

drm/i915/bdw: remove erroneous chv specific workarounds from bdw code
drm/i915: fix possible refcount leak when resetting forcewake
drm/i915: Reorder semaphore deadlock check
drm/i95: Initialize active ring->pid to -1

drm/i915: Avoid div-by-zero when pixel_multiplier is zero

drm/i915: Kick out vga console

vt: Don't ignore unbind errors in vt_unbind
vt: Fix up unregistration of vt drivers
vt: Fix replacement console check when unbinding
Otherwise the loop will never stop since we don't make any
forward progress. Noticed while breaking this accidentally
in a painful attempt to make vga_con unregistering work.
With this patch we'll bail out on the first attempt, which
at least leaves a useful enough system behind for debugging.
Livelocks on console_lock just aren't fun.

A bunch of issues:
- We should not kick out the default console (which is tracked in
conswitchp), so check for that.
- Add better error codes so callers can differentiate between "something
went wrong" and "your driver isn't registered already". i915 needs
that so it doesn't fall over when reloading the driver and hence
vga_con is already unregistered.
- There's a mess with the driver flags: What we need to check for is
that the driver isn't used any more, i.e. unbound completely (FLAG_INIT).
And not whether it's the boot console or not (which is the only one
which doesn't have FLAG_MODULE). Otherwise there's no way to kick
out the boot console, which i915 wants to do to prevent havoc with
vga_con interferring (which tends to hang machines).

I don't fully understand the magic of the vt register/unregister
logic, but apparently everything but the inital console (as set
in the conswitchp pointer) is marked with FLAG_MODULE. Which means
if something unregistered the boot vt driver (e.g. i915.ko kicking
out vga_con) there's nothing left when trying to unbind e.g. fbcon
through sysfs.
But in most cases have the dummy console hanging around besides the
boot console, so this test is fairly dubious. What we actually want is
simply a different console than the one we want to unbind.
v2: Correct the commit message to clarify that the dummy console isn't
always around, but only in most cases (David).

The vc_data.vc_uni_pagedir filed is currently long int, supposedly to
be served generically. This, however, leads to lots of cast to
pointer, and rather it worsens the readability significantly.
Actually, we have now only a single uni_pagedir map implementation,
and this won't change likely. So, it'd be much more simple and
error-prone to just use the exact pointer for struct uni_pagedir
instead of long.
Ditto for vc_uni_pagedir_loc. It's a pointer to the uni_pagedir, thus
it can be changed similarly to the exact type.

Most other mainstream terminals support "xterm256" colours, which means
people sometimes use these blindly without checking capabilities.
Because of hardware limitations of VGA consoles, colours are downgraded to
16 foregrounds and 8 backgrounds. On fbdev consoles it would be possible
to support them without quality loss, but adding that would require quite a
large amount of code.

These can be used to send commands consisting of an arbitrary string to the
terminal, most often used to set a terminal's window title or to redefine
the colour palette. Our console doesn't use OSC, unlike everything else,
which can lead to junk being displayed if a process sends such a code
unconditionally.
The rules for termination follow established practice rather than Ecma-48.
Ecma-48 requires the string to use only byte values 0x08..0x0D and
0x20..0x7E, terminated with either ESC \ or 0x9C. This would disallow using
8-bit characters, which are reasonable for example in window titles.
A widespread idiom is to terminate with 0x07. The behaviour for other
control characters differs between terminal emulators, I followed libvte and
xterm:
* 0x07 and ESC anything terminate
* nothing else terminates, all 8-bit values including 0x9C are considered a
part of the string

This is not a bug on our side, but a misdesign in ITU T.416, yet with
all popular terminals supporting these codes, people consider this to
be a bug in Linux. By breaking the design principles behind SGR codes
(gracefully ignoring unsupported ones should not require knowing about
them), 256 colour ones tend to turn blinking on before invoking an
arbitrary unrelated command.
This commit doesn't add such support, merely skips such codes without
ill effects.
