hvc_console: Add support for tty window resizing
The patch provides the hvc_resize() function to update the terminal window dimensions (struct winsize) for a specified hvc console. The function stores the new window size and schedules a function that finally updates the tty winsize and signals the change to user space (SIGWINCH). Because the winsize update must acquire a mutex and might sleep, the function is scheduled instead of being called from hvc_poll() or khvcd. This patch uses the tty_do_resize() routine from the tty layer. A pending resize work is canceled in hvc_close() and hvc_hangup().
