[PATCH] Fix rq->lock vs logbuf_lock unlock race
From: ybu
Date: Mon Feb 18 2013 - 06:52:01 EST
fix up the fallout from commit 07354eb1a74d1 ("locking printk:
Annotate logbuf_lock as raw")
Release console_sem after unlocking the logbuf_lock avoids some lock
inversion troubles between logbuf_lock and rq->lock.
