Eric W. Biederman 81af8d67d4 [PATCH] vt: rework the console spawning variables ... This is such a rare path it took me a while to figure out how to test this after soring out the locking. This patch does several things. - The variables used are moved into a structure and declared in vt_kern.h - A spinlock is added so we don't have SMP races updating the values. - Instead of raw pid_t value a struct_pid is used to guard against pid wrap around issues, if the daemon to spawn a new console dies.
