Tricky. Suggest you use X or
vgacon. You can try removing the lock_kernel() calls from do_tty_write(),
but make sure you're wearing ear protection.
OK, I figured this was not an easy one. I can just not do that.
Why not? You can certainly try removing those [un]lock_kernel() calls.
Maybe I missed something. What exactly do you mean by 'make sure you're
wearing ear protection'?
It might go boom. If it does screw up, it probably won't be very seriously
bad - maybe some display glitches. Just an experiment.
