virtio: console: Enable call to hvc_remove() on console port remove

Browse source 
This call was disabled as hot-unplugging one virtconsole port led to
another virtconsole port freezing.

Upon testing it again, this now works, so enable it.

In addition, a bug was found in qemu wherein removing a port of one type
caused the guest output from another port to stop working.  I doubt it
was just this bug that caused it (since disabling the hvc_remove() call
did allow other ports to continue working), but since it's all solved
now, we're fine with hot-unplugging of virtconsole ports.
