kgdboc_earlycon_init() uses the console_lock to ensure that no consoles are unregistered until the kgdboc_earlycon is setup. This is necessary because the trapping of the exit() callback assumes that the exit() callback is not called before the trap is setup. Explicitly document this non-typical console_lock usage.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
