[PATCH v2 3/3] console: fix out-of-bounds read in dputc(/dev/*, ...)

[Ahmad Fatoum <a.fatoum@pengutronix.de>]

Trying to output a single character via
	echo -a /dev/serial0-1
currently results in garbage output after the newline, because console.c's
fops_write discards the buffer length and passes the buffer to
(struct cdev)::puts which only handles NUL-terminated strings.

Fix this by amending (struct cdev)::puts with a new nbytes parameter,
which is correctly propagated.

Fixes: b4f55fcf35 ("console: expose consoles in devfs")

Changes in v2:
	- fixed commit hash in Fixes:, by Bastian
	- fixed possible incomplete writes in __console_puts
	- rebased on top of two potential bug fixes
