Fix a warning about possible circular locking dependency.
If do in following sequence:
enter suspend -> resume -> plug-out CPUx (echo 0 > cpux/online)
lockdep will show warning as following:

Chain exists of:

Possible unsafe locking scenario:

---- ----
lock(cpu_hotplug.lock);
lock(cpu_add_remove_lock);
lock(cpu_hotplug.lock);
lock(console_lock);
*** DEADLOCK ***
There are three locks involved in two sequence:
a) pm suspend:
console_lock (@suspend_console())
cpu_add_remove_lock (@disable_nonboot_cpus())
cpu_hotplug.lock (@_cpu_down())
b) Plug-out CPUx:
cpu_add_remove_lock (@(cpu_down())
cpu_hotplug.lock (@_cpu_down())
console_lock (@console_cpu_notify()) => Lockdeps prints warning log.
There should be not real deadlock, as flag of console_suspended can
protect this.
Although console_suspend() releases console_sem, it doesn't tell lockdep
about it. That results in the lockdep warning about circular locking
when doing the following: enter suspend -> resume -> plug-out CPUx (echo
0 > cpux/online)
Fix the problem by telling lockdep we actually released the semaphore in
console_suspend() and acquired it again in console_resume().
