Blackfin arch: Fix bug using usb keyboard crashes kernel
Without conswitchp preset, we have the following situation: - During initcalls: con_init is called, and returns because of !display_desc. - At this point there is no memory allocated for vc_cons[].d A bit later vty_init calls kbd_init. - From now on events are passed to kbd_event which will then call kbd_keycode. - kbd_keycode will oops on a NULL pointer dereference on vc->vc_tty Signed-off-by: Michael Hennerich <michael.hennerich@analog.com> Cc: Pekka Enberg <penberg@cs.helsinki.fi> Signed-off-by: Bryan Wu <bryan.wu@analog.com> [ Added commit description based on email thread. - Linus ] Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
