Subject: [PATCH printk v2 05/11] printk: nbcon: Provide function for atomic flushing

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@...utronix.de>

Provide nbcon_atomic_flush() to perform atomic write flushing
of all registered nbcon consoles. Like with legacy consoles,
the nbcon consoles are flushed one record per console. This
allows all nbcon consoles to generate pseudo-simultaneously,
rather than one console waiting for the full ringbuffer to
dump to another console before printing anything.

Note that if the current CPU is in a nested elevated priority
state (EMERGENCY/PANIC), nbcon_atomic_flush() does nothing.
This is in case the printing itself generates urgent messages
(OOPS/WARN/PANIC), that those messages are fully stored into
the ringbuffer before any printing resumes.
