    Linus Torvalds authored
    Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:
    
     - Stop synchronizing kernel log buffer readers by logbuf_lock. As a
       result, the access to the buffer is fully lockless now.
    
       Note that printk() itself still uses locks because it tries to flush
       the messages to the console immediately. Also the per-CPU temporary
       buffers are still there because they prevent infinite recursion and
       serialize backtraces from NMI. All this is going to change in the
       future.
    
     - kmsg_dump API rework and cleanup as a side effect of the logbuf_lock
       removal.
    
     - Make bstr_printf() aware that %pf and %pF formats could deference the
       given pointer.
    
     - Show also page flags by %pGp format.
    
     - Clarify the documentation for plain pointer printing.
    
     - Do not show no_hash_pointers warning multiple times.
    
     - Update Senozhatsky email address.
    
     - Some clean up.
