[PATCH 3.4 101/172] virtio_console: avoid config access from irq

From: "Michael S. Tsirkin" <mst@redhat.com>

3.4.108-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

commit eeb8a7e8bb123e84daeef84f5a2eab99ad2839a2 upstream.

when multiport is off, virtio console invokes config access from irq
context, config access is blocking on s390.
Fix this up by scheduling work from config irq - similar to what we do
for multiport configs.
