What if you make lockless_register_fb visible to fbcon, and then we can
have a macro:

#define WARN_FB_CONSOLE_UNLOCKED()                      \
        do {                                            \
                if (unlikely(!lockless_register_fb))    \
                        WARN_CONSOLE_UNLOCKED();        \
        } while (0)

And use that instead?
