Hi,

(Apologies for the long To: list, I've added everyone that
scripts/get_maintainer.pl listed for fs/{fs-writeback,inode}.c, for the
rockchip boards, for printk.c and for the tty layer)

When booting a kernel built from tag v5.19-rc2, my rockpro64-v2 hangs at
boot with this log:

Config can be found at [1] (expires after 6 months). I've also built the
kernel with gcc 10.3.1 [2] (aarch64-none-linux-gnu), same issue.

I've bisected the build failure to commit 10e14073107d ("writeback: Fix
inode->i_io_list not be protected by inode->i_lock error"); I've confirmed
that that commit is responsible by successfully booting the board with a
kernel built from v5.19-rc2 + the above commit reverted.

I tried to do some investigating, it seems that the kernel is stuck at
printk.c::console_init() -> drivers/tty/vt/vt.c::con_init() ->
printk.c::register_console() -> unregister_console() -> console_lock().
This has been determined by adding pr_info statements.

I've booted a kernel compiled with CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING=y, as the offending
commit fiddles with locks, but no splat was produced that would explain the
hang. I've also tried to boot a v5,19-rc2 kernel on my odroid-c4, the board
is booting just fine, so I'm guessing it only affects of subset of arm64
boards.
