[PATCH printk v1 10/10] serial: 8250: implement write_atomic

From: John Ogness
Date: Tue Aug 03 2021 - 09:13:42 EST


Implement an NMI-safe write_atomic() console function in order to
support synchronous console printing.

Since interrupts need to be disabled during transmit, all usage of
the IER register is wrapped with access functions that use the
printk cpulock to synchronize register access while tracking the
state of the interrupts. This is necessary because write_atomic()
can be called from an NMI context that has preempted write_atomic().
