    vt: call driver's postswitch when panicking on ttyv0
    
    In vt_kms, the postswitch callback restores fbdev mode when
    panicking or entering the debugger. This ensures that even when
    a graphical applicatino was running on the first tty, simple framebuffer
    mode would be restored and the panic would be visible instead
    of the frozen GUI. But vt wouldn't call the postswitch callback
    when we're already on the first tty, so running a GUI on it
    would prevent you from reading any panics.
