x86/console: process softirqs between warning prints

Process softirqs while printing end of boot warnings. Each warning can
be several lines long, and on slow consoles printing multiple ones
without processing softirqs can result in the watchdog triggering:

(XEN) [   22.556029] This option is intended to aid debugging of Xen by ensuring
(XEN) [   22.696802] that all output is synchronously delivered on the serial line.
