[PATCH 2/2] bcachefs: only console_trylock in bch2_print_string_as_lines

console_lock is the outermost subsystem lock for a lot of subsystems,
which means get/put_user must nest within. Which means it cannot be
acquired somewhere deeply nested in other locks, and most definitely
not while holding fs locks potentially needed to resolve faults.

console_trylock is the best we can do here.

Including printk folks since even trylock feels realyl iffy here to
me.
