[PATCH 2/3] printk: introduce reset_console_drivers()
From: Sergey Senozhatsky
Date: Sun Jan 31 2016 - 07:32:44 EST
Console driver(-s) can be in any state when CPU stop IPI
arrives from panic() issued on another CPU, so
console_flush_on_panic()->console_unlock() can call
con->write() callback on a locked console driver.
Introduce reset_console_drivers() that attempts to reset()
every console in via a console driver specific ->reset()
call.
Invoke reset_console_drivers() from console_reset_on_panic().
WARNING
=======
console_reset_on_panic() needs to be fixed.
