Subject: [patch 1/1] hvc_console: fix: hp->ws winsize check runs out-of-sync

From: Hendrik Brueckner <[email-masked]>

From: Hendrik Brueckner <[email-masked]>

The test to check for a new winsize runs out-of-sync with the underlying
tty. After a tty has been released and initialized again, the winsize might
differ between the tty and the hp struct. 
The solution is to simply remove the check and always schedule the resize work.
