[PATCH] Software Suspend: Fix suspend when console is in VT_AUTO/KD_GRAPHICS mode

[Andrew Johnson <ajohnson@intrinsyc.com>]

Hi Pavel,

When the console is in VT_AUTO/KD_GRAPHICS mode, switching to the
SUSPEND_CONSOLE fails, resulting in vt_waitactive() waiting indefinately
or until the task is interrupted.  The following patch tests if a
console switch can occur in set_console() and returns early if a console
switch is not possible.
