Yes, we should avoid printk_deferred() unless there is another solution.

Honestly, I do not see where a PM counter gets incremented.

Anyway, __disable_irq_nosync() does nothing when
irq_get_desc_buslock() returns NULL. And irq_get_desc_buslock()
takes desc->lock when desc exist. This should be enough to
synchronize any calls.

Yup, this looks suspicious. We set a flag in port.irqflags and take the lock
only when the flag was set. Either everything needs to be done under
the lock or the lock is not needed.

Well, I might have missed something. I do not fully understand meaning
and relation of all the structures.

Anyway, I believe that this is a false positive. If I get it correctly
serial8250_do_startup() must be called before the serial port could
be registered as a console. It means that it could not be called
from inside printk().

Sigh, I do not know how to tell lockdep about these false positives.
And I am never 100% sure that we could shuffle locks in the various
the console drivers.

I think that it might be safe but I am not 100% sure, sigh.
