[S390] console flush on panic / reboot

The s390 console drivers use the unblank callback of the console
structure to flush the console buffer. In case of a panic or a
reboot the CPU doing the callback can block on the console i/o.
The other CPUs in the system continue to work. For panic this is
not a good idea.

Replace the unblank callback with proper panic/reboot notifier.
These get called after all but one CPU have been stopped.
