[PATCH] PM: make it possible to disable console suspending

Change suspend_console() so that it waits for all consoles to flush the
remaining messages and make it possible to switch the console suspending off
with the help of a Kconfig option.

---help---
This option turns off the console suspend mechanism that prevents
debug messages from reaching the console during the suspend/resume
operations. This may be helpful when debugging device drivers'
suspend/resume routines, but may itself lead to problems, for example
if netconsole is used.
