[RFC][PATCHv2 7/7] printk: remove zap_locks() function

[Sergey Senozhatsky <sergey.senozhatsky@gmail.com>]

We use alt_printk now which makes printk-recursion detection code
in vprintk_emit() is unreachable. The tricky thing here is that,
apart from detecting and reporting printk recursions, that code also
used to zap_lockc() in case of panic. However, zap_locks() does not
look to be needed anymore:

1) Since 08d78658f393 ('panic: release stale console lock to always get
   the logbuf printed out') panic flushing of `logbuf' to console ignores
   the state of `console_sem' by doing
   	panic()
		console_trylock();
		console_unlock();

2) Since cf9b1106c81c ('printk/nmi: flush NMI messages on the system
   panic') panic attempts to zap the `logbuf_lock' spin_lock to
   successfully flush nmi messages to `logbuf'.

Basically, it seems that we either already do what zap_locks() used to
do but in other places or we ignore the state of the lock. May be we
still would want to do sema_init() in alt_printk_flush_on_panic(), just
in case.
