/* ...
* By default, the kernel messages are always printed on the current virtual
* console. However, the user may modify that default with the
* TIOCL_SETKMSGREDIRECT ioctl call.
*
* This function sets the kernel message console to be @new. It returns the old
* virtual console number. The virtual terminal number 0 (both as parameter and
* return value) means no redirection (i.e. always printed on the currently
* active console).
