[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.9 16/62] fbdev/core: Disable console-lock warnings when fb.lockless_register_fb is set
From: Sasha Levin
Date: Sun Sep 02 2018 - 09:24:35 EST
From: Thomas Zimmermann <tzimmermann@xxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 3f2ce54284a60500eb6dca1dca6fd615df8f9aa3 ]
If the console is unlocked during registration, the console subsystem
generates significant amounts of warnings, which obfuscate actual
debugging messages. Setting ignore_console_lock_warning while debugging
console registration avoid the noise.
v3:
- manipulate ignore_console_lock_warning with atomic_{inc,dec}
v2:
- restore ignore_console_lock_warning if lock_fb_info() fails
