[PATCH] swsusp: fix suspend when console is in VT_AUTO+KD_GRAPHICS mode
When the console is in VT_AUTO+KD_GRAPHICS mode, switching to the SUSPEND_CONSOLE fails, resulting in vt_waitactive() waiting indefinitely or until the task is interrupted. This patch tests if a console switch can occur in set_console() and returns early if a console switch is not possible.
