Heh, the check of CON_ENABLED does not make much sense. IMHO, the important
thing is whether the console is in console_list or not.

I would personally add a check at the beginning of register_console()
whether the console is already registered and enabled() and do
nothing when already done.

I would be nice to fix this. But it might be done later.

The replacement is straightforward. Both checks are or might be racy.
Feel free to use:
