Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pmladek/printk
Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek: - Add Petr Mladek, Sergey Senozhatsky as printk maintainers, and Steven Rostedt as the printk reviewer. This idea came up after the discussion about printk issues at Kernel Summit. It was formulated and discussed at lkml[1]. - Extend a lock-less NMI per-cpu buffers idea to handle recursive printk() calls by Sergey Senozhatsky[2]. It is the first step in sanitizing printk as discussed at Kernel Summit. The change allows to see messages that would normally get ignored or would cause a deadlock. Also it allows to enable lockdep in printk(). This already paid off. The testing in linux-next helped to discover two old problems that were hidden before[3][4]. - Remove unused parameter by Sergey Senozhatsky. Clean up after a past change.
