Blackfin arch: Fix bug using usb keyboard crashes kernel

Without conswitchp preset, we have the following situation:

 - During initcalls: con_init is called, and returns because of
   !display_desc.

 - At this point there is no memory allocated for vc_cons[].d
   A bit later vty_init calls kbd_init.

 - From now on events are passed to kbd_event which will then call
   kbd_keycode.

 - kbd_keycode will oops on a NULL pointer dereference on vc->vc_tty
