Subject: [PATCH next v3 00/15] printk: remove logbuf_lock

Hello,

Here is v3 of a series to remove @logbuf_lock, exposing the
ringbuffer locklessly to both readers and writers. v2 is here [0].

Since @logbuf_lock was protecting much more than just the
ringbuffer, this series clarifies and cleans up the various
protections using comments, lockless accessors, atomic types, and a
new finer-grained @syslog_lock.

Removing @logbuf_lock required changing the semantics of the
kmsg_dumper callback in order to work locklessly. Since this
involved touching all the kmsg_dump users, we also decided [1] to
use this opportunity to clean up and clarify the kmsg_dump semantics
in general.

This series is based on next-20210225.

Changes since v2:

- use get_maintainer.pl to get the full list of developers that
  should at least see the changes in their respective areas

- do not disable interrupts in arch/um kmsg_dumper (because there is
  no need to)

- protect the mtd/mtdoops kmsg_dumper buffer against concurrent
  dumps

- update kerneldoc for kmsg_dump_get_line() (@len_out)

- remove ksmg_dump's @active flag

- change kmsg_dumper callback to:
  void (*dump)(enum kmsg_dump_reason reason);

- rename kmsg_dumper_iter to kmsg_dump_iter

- update kmsg_dumpers to use their own kmsg_dump_iter (and
  initialize it with kmsg_dump_rewind() if necessary)
