JFYI, the patch has been committed into printk/linux.git,
branch rework/write_atomic. It is intended for 6.12 merge window.

I have chosen this branch because it modified the list of included
files in kernel/printk/printk_ringbuffer.h as well. It allowed to apply
the patch without conflicts.

Best Regards,
Petr
