From 9afc7bbded3186f527dcbad76283e8a4bfb732b6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Date: Sat, 16 Sep 2023 21:26:07 +0206 Subject: [PATCH 108/204] printk: nbcon: Allow drivers to mark unsafe regions and check state For the write_atomic callback, the console driver may have unsafe regions that need to be appropriately marked. Provide functions that accept the nbcon_write_context struct to allow for the driver to enter and exit unsafe regions. Also provide a function for drivers to check if they are still the owner of the console.
