Nit: can we move this definition into the block below where it's used?

Right here:

By that reasoning, the CONSOLE_SCREEN_BUFFER_INFO declaration that has
function-wide scope should also move below:

As the existing code followed a different convention, so does my patch.

If you choose to submit a change that moved the `mode` declaration to
narrow its scope, please also move the `sbi` declaration for consistency.
