[PATCH] remove unnecessary initial allocation of vc

["Pranay Kr. Srivastava" <pranjas@gmail.com>]

This patch removes the unnecessary allocation of
current foreground vc during initialization.

Also change the prototype of speakup_allocate to take
extra argument of gfp_* flags. Thus not requiring
GFP_ATOMIC during initialization.
