hlist_del_init_rcu() only re-initializes @pprev pointer. But maybe you
are concerned that there is a window where list_unhashed() becomes true?
I agree that it should be changed to hlist_del_rcu() because there
should not be a window where this console appears unregistered.

Agreed. For v4 it will become:
console_srcu_write_flags(cur_pref_con->flags & ~CON_CONSDEV);
