        hvc_console: rework setup to replace irq functions with callbacks
        introduced a spinlock recursion problem. The notifier_del is
        called with a lock held, and in turns calls free_irq which then
        complains when manipulating procfs. This fixes it by moving the
        call to the notifier to outside of the locked section.
