Subject: [PATCH v6 1/2] printk: Factor out buffering and irq work queuing in printk_deferred
printk_deferred() is a function for seperating between buffering a
message and deferring the actual printing. This patch factors out these
since these are also useful to others, where printk() cannot perform
the actual printing at the moment when printk() is called.
For example, spin_dump() must not perform the actual printing if
console_sem's spinlock has already been held at the moment. In that
case, spinlock debug system must do printk() without the actual printing,
otherwise a deadlock occures.
