tty,vcs: lseek/VC-release race fix 

there's a race between vcs's lseek handler and VC release.

The lseek handler does not hold console_lock and touches
VC's size info. If during this the VC got released, there's
an access violation.

Following program triggers the issue for me:

#define _BSD_SOURCE
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <sys/ioctl.h>
#include <linux/vt.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <errno.h>

static int run_seek(void)
{
        while(1) {
                int fd;
                fd = open("./vcs30", O_RDWR);
                while(lseek(fd, 0, 0) != -1);
                close(fd);
        }
}

static int open_ioctl_tty(void)
{
        return open("/dev/tty1", O_RDWR);
}

static int do_ioctl(int fd, int req, int i)
{
        return ioctl(fd, req, i);
}

#define INIT(i) do_ioctl(ioctl_fd, VT_ACTIVATE, i)
#define SHUT(i) do_ioctl(ioctl_fd, VT_DISALLOCATE, i)

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
        int ioctl_fd = open_ioctl_tty();

        if (ioctl < 0) {
                perror("open tty1 failed\n");
                return -1;
        }

        if ((-1 == mknod("vcs30", S_IFCHR|0666, makedev(7, 30))) &&
            (errno != EEXIST)) {
                printf("errno %d\n", errno);
                perror("failed to create vcs30");
                return -1;
        }

        do_ioctl(ioctl_fd, VT_LOCKSWITCH, 0);

        if (!fork())
                run_seek();

        while(1) {
                INIT(30);
                SHUT(30);
        }

        return 0;
}
