Andres Salomon b6f448e99c PM/gxfb: add hook to PM console layer that allows disabling of suspend VT switch
Prior to suspend, we allocate and switch to a new VT; after suspend, we switch
back to the original VT.  This can be slow, and is completely unnecessary if
the framebuffer we're using can restore video properly.

This adds a hook that allows drivers to select whether or not to do this vt
switch, and changes the gxfb driver to call this hook.  It also adds a module
param to gxfb to allow controlling of the vt switch (defaulting to no switch).

(Note: I'm not convinced that console_sem is the best way to protect this, but
we should probably have some form of locking..)
