Subject: [GIT PULL] printk for 4.14

Linus,

please pull the latest printk changes from

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pmladek/printk.git for-linus


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

- Do not allow to use freed init data and code even when boot
  consoles are forced to stay. Also check for the init memory
  more precisely.

- Some code clean up by starting contributors.

----------------------------------------------------------------
Matt Redfearn (1):
      printk/console: Always disable boot consoles that use init memory before it is freed

Nikitas Angelinas (1):
      printk: Clean up do_syslog() error handling

Petr Mladek (1):
      printk/console: Enhance the check for consoles using init memory

Pierre Kuo (1):
      printk: Modify operators of printed_len and text_len
