Merge tag 'printk-for-4.18' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pmladek/printk

Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:

 - Help userspace log daemons to catch up with a flood of messages. They
   will get woken after each message even if the console is far behind
   and handled by another process.

 - Flush printk safe buffers safely even when panic() happens in the
   normal context.

 - Fix possible va_list reuse when race happened in printk_safe().

 - Remove %pCr printf format to prevent sleeping in the atomic context.

 - Misc vsprintf code cleanup.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
