printk/console: Remove unnecessary need_default_console manipulation
There is no need to clear @need_default_console when a console preferred by the command line, device tree, or SPCR, gets enabled. The code is called only when some non-braille console matched a console in @console_cmdline array. It means that a non-braille console was added in __add_preferred_console() and the variable preferred_console is set to a number >= 0. As a result, @need_default_console is always set to "false" in the magic condition: if (need_default_console || bcon || !console_drivers) need_default_console = preferred_console < 0; This is one small step in removing the above magic condition that is hard to follow. The patch removes one superfluous assignment and should not change the functionality.
