If there is no input available or possible due to policy settings, it
does not make sense to show a menu and ask for input.

If the console input is deactivated through a security policy, then
there is no need to iterate over the current consoles, as none should
have a STDIN.

Without the SCONFIG_FS_EXTERNAL, the bus of the driver for pstore will
not load, resulting in a missing driver for pstore and an error during
bootup.
Only mount the /pstore if FS_EXTERNAL is allowed by the security policy.
