[PATCH] Detaching fbcon: fix give_up_console()

To allow for detaching fbcon, it must be able to give up the console.
However, the function give_up_console() is plain broken.  It just sets the
entries in the console driver map to NULL, it leaves the vt layer without a
console driver, and does not decrement the module reference count.  Calling
give_up_console() is guaranteed to hang the machine..

To fix this problem, ensure that the virtual consoles are not left dangling
without a driver.  All systems have a default boot driver (either vgacon or
dummycon) which is never unloaded.  For those vt's that lost their driver, the
default boot driver is reassigned back to them.
