Subject: [PATCH next v3 3/3] printk: remove logbuf_lock protection for ringbuffer

Since the ringbuffer is lockless, there is no need for it to be
protected by @logbuf_lock. Remove @logbuf_lock protection of the
ringbuffer.

This means that printk_nmi_direct and printk_safe_flush_on_panic()
no longer need to acquire any lock to run.

Without @logbuf_lock it is no longer possible to use the single
static buffer for temporarily sprint'ing the message. Instead,
use vsnprintf() to determine the length and perform the real
vscnprintf() using the area reserved from the ringbuffer. This
leads to suboptimal packing of the message data, but will
result in less wasted storage than multiple per-cpu buffers to
support lockless temporary sprint'ing.
