From 0da3badea7ad5df0a278c90f9bf55d7e98065925 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de> Date: Thu, 20 Jun 2024 11:21:13 +0200 Subject: [PATCH 197/204] prinkt/nbcon: Add a scheduling point to nbcon_kthread_func(). Constant printing can lead to a CPU hog in nbcon_kthread_func(). The context is preemptible but on !PREEMPT kernels there is no explicit preemption point which leads softlockup warnings. Add an explicit preemption point in nbcon_kthread_func().
