[GIT PULL] printk for 6.9

[GIT PULL] printk for 6.9

[Petr Mladek]

Hi Linus,

please pull the latest printk changes from

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/printk/linux.git tags/printk-for-6.9

========================================

Printk changes for 6.9 improve the behavior during panic. The issues were
found when testing the ongoing changes introducing atomic consoles and
printk kthreads.

- pr_flush() has to wait for the last reserved record instead
  of the last finalized one. Note that records are finalized
  in random order when generated by more CPUs in parallel.

- Ignore non-finalized records during panic(). Messages printed
  on panic-CPU are always finalized. Messages printed by other
  CPUs might never be finalized when the CPUs get stopped.

- Block new printk() calls on non-panic CPUs completely. Backtraces
  are printed before entering the panic mode. Later messages
  would just mess information printed by the panic CPU.

- Do not take console_lock in console_flush_on_panic() at all.
  The original code did try_lock()/console_unlock(). The unlock part
  might cause a deadlock when panic() happened in a scheduler code.

- Fix conversion of 64-bit sequence number for 32-bit atomic
  operations.
