The per-cpu @printk_pending variable can be updated from
sleepable contexts, such as:
get_random_bytes()
warn_unseeded_randomness()
printk_deferred()
defer_console_output()
and can be updated from interrupt contexts, such as:
handle_irq_event_percpu()
__irq_wake_thread()
wake_up_process()
try_to_wake_up()
select_task_rq()
select_fallback_rq()
printk_deferred()
defer_console_output()
and can be updated from NMI contexts, such as:
vprintk()
if (in_nmi()) defer_console_output()
Therefore the atomic variant of the updating functions must be used.
Replace __this_cpu_xchg() with this_cpu_xchg().
Replace __this_cpu_or() with this_cpu_or().

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.
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.
