Subject: [PATCH printk v5 7/8] printk: nbcon: Add emit function and callback function for atomic printing
From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@...utronix.de>
Implement an emit function for nbcon consoles to output printk
messages. It utilizes the lockless printk_get_next_message() and
console_prepend_dropped() functions to retrieve/build the output
message. The emit function includes the required safety points to
check for handover/takeover and calls a new write_atomic callback
of the console driver to output the message. It also includes
proper handling for updating the nbcon console sequence number.
A new nbcon_write_context struct is introduced. This is provided
to the write_atomic callback and includes only the information
necessary for performing atomic writes.
